Broadcaster Information and Transition Plan

Back to Top
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 Build CH23 xmtr, replace ant stack with CH23 ant mounted on pole. Use the CH48 main feedline for a new CH23 aux ant. Install a new feedline for the CH23 main ant.Remain on air using the CH48 aux ant.After transition, remove the CH48 aux ant and feedline.
