| 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 | K12PO went silent on March 15, 2019 when KDOC was was repacked to Ch. 12 in Anaheim, CA. K12PO was eventually assigned to Ch. 3. We are constructing facilities to move from UFH to VHF and will be serving the Murietta Community. |
