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 | Purchase new transmitter, antenna and transmission line. Lease interim side-mount ch 38 antenna, use existing line to maintain service while top-mount is removed and new antenna, transmitter and line installed. See attached Transition Plan. |
