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. | Yes |
Briefly describe transition plan | Purchase of the transmitter, antenna system and transmission line. Current transmitter manufacturer does not support the retune to the new channel. Installation of interim antenna and transmission line, while main antenna is underway. |
