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. Yes
Briefly describe transition plan WGNT current leased tower will not pass Rev G without major upgrades. ATC the tower owner, wants to forgo upgrades an move WGNT to share antenna on alternate site. WGNT will replace its transmitter
