| 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 | WVFW-LD is planning on purchasing a like-for-like system of transmitter, antenna and transmission line and installing them on a tower at a new location. Transmitter and antenna upgrades are necessary because of the move from UHF to VHF. |
