Question | Response |
---|---|
Will the station be sharing equipment with another broadcast television station or stations (e.g., a shared antenna, co-location on a tower, use of the same transmitter room, multiple transmitters feeding a combiner, etc.)? If yes, enter the facility ID's of the other stations and click 'prefill' to download those stations' licensing information. | No |
Briefly describe transition plan | WTIU will need to replace the current transmitter, exciter with backup, mask filter, combiner, dehydrator and top mount antenna to re-locate to digital Ch. 33. Current transmission line was sweep to verify acceptable RF/VSWR to operate on Ch.33. |
