COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[MB Docket No. 11–159, RM–11644; DA 11–
1690]
Television Broadcasting Services;
Cleveland, OH
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The Commission has before it
a petition for rulemaking filed by
Community Television of Ohio License,
LLC (‘‘Community Television’’), the
licensee of station WJW (TV), channel 8,
Cleveland, Ohio, requesting the
substitution of channel 31 for channel 8
at Cleveland. Community Television is
seeking the channel substitution
because a sizeable number of the
station’s viewers in areas southwest of
the station’s transmitter were not able to
receive the station’s over-the-air signal
after it terminated analog service on
June 12, 2009, and commenced posttransition digital service on its VHF
channel. Many viewers reporting
difficulty receiving WJW (TV)’s signal
report they have no difficulty receiving
the UHF stations in the area. Channel 31
was selected because this was
Community Television’s pre-transition
digital channel and it has retained much
of the channel 31 transmission
equipment.
DATES: Comments must be filed on or
before November 25, 2011, and reply
comments on or before December 12,
2011.
ADDRESSES: Federal Communications
Commission, Office of the Secretary,
445 12th Street, SW., Washington, DC
20554. In addition to filing comments
with the FCC, interested parties should
serve counsel for petitioner as follows:
