125,000 hours.
Total Annual Costs: None.
Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality with
this collection of information.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirements contained in 47
CFR 73.686 describes a method for
measuring signal strength at a
household so that the satellite and
broadcast industries would have a
uniform method for making an actual
determination of the signal strength that
a household received. The information
gathered as part of the Grade B contour
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:34 Mar 07, 2017
Jkt 241001
signal strength tests will be used to
indicate whether a household is
‘‘unserved’’ by over-the-air network
signals.
Satellite and broadcast industries
making field strength measurements for
formal submission to the Commission in
rulemaking proceedings, or making such
measurements upon the request of the
Commission, shall follow the procedure
for making and reporting such
measurements which shall be included
in a report to the Commission and
submitted in affidavit form, in triplicate.
The report shall contain the following
information:
(a) Tables of field strength
measurements, which for each
measuring location; (b) U.S. Geological
Survey topographic maps; (c) All
information necessary to determine the
pertinent characteristics of the
transmitting installation; (d) A list of
calibrated equipment used in the field
strength survey; (e) A detailed
description of the calibration of the
measuring equipment, and (f) Terrain
profiles in each direction in which
measurements were made.
The information collection
requirements contained in 47 CFR
73.686 also requires satellite and
broadcast companies to maintain a
written record describing, for each
location, factors which may affect the
recorded field (i.e., the approximate
time or measurement, weather,
topography, overhead wiring, heights
and types of vegetation, buildings and
other structures, the orientation of the
measuring location, objects of such
shape and size that cause shadows or
reflections, signals received that arrived
from a direction other than that of the
transmitter, survey, list of the measured
value field strength, time and date of the
measurements and signature of the
person making the measurements).
The information collection
requirements contained in 47 CFR
73.686(e) describes the procedures for
measuring the field strength of digital
television signals. These procedures
will be used to determine whether a
household is eligible to receive a distant
digital network signal from a satellite
television provider, largely rely on
existing, proven methods the
Commission has already established for
measuring analog television signal
strength at any individual location, as
set forth in Section 73.686(d) of the
existing rules, but include modifications
as necessary to accommodate the
inherent differences between analog and
digital TV signals. The new digital
signal measurement procedures include
provisions for the location of the
measurement antenna, antenna height,
PO 00000
Frm 00036

signal measurement method, antenna
orientation and polarization, and data
recording.
Therefore, satellite and broadcast
industries making field strength
measurements shall maintain written
records and include the following
information: (a) A list of calibrated
equipment used in the field strength
survey, which for each instrument
specifies the manufacturer, type, serial
number and rated accuracy, and the
date of the most recent calibration by
the manufacturer or by a laboratory.
Include complete details of any
instrument not of standard manufacture;
(b) A detailed description of the
calibration of the measuring equipment,
including field strength meters,
measuring antenna, and connecting
cable; (c) For each spot at the measuring
site, all factors which may affect the
recorded field, such as topography,
height and types of vegetation,
buildings, obstacles, weather, and other
local features; (d) A description of
where the cluster measurements were
made; (e) Time and date of the
measurements and signature of the
person making the measurements; (f)
For each channel being measured, a list
of the measured value of field strength
(in units of dBm after adjustment for line
loss and antenna factor) of the five
readings made during the cluster
measurement process, with the median
value highlighted.
