Translator or DTV Transition.
47 CFR 74.799 (previously 74.800)
permits LPTV and TV translator stations
to seek approval to share a single
television channel with other LPTV and
TV translator stations and with full
power and Class A stations. Stations
interested in terminating operations and
sharing another station’s channel must
submit FCC Form 2100 Schedule C in
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 250001
order to have the channel sharing
arrangement approved. If the sharing
station is proposing to make changes to
its facility to accommodate the channel
sharing, it must also file FCC Form 2100
Schedule C.
47 CFR 74.793(d) require that certain
digital low power and TV translator
stations submit information as to
vertical radiation patterns as part of
their applications (FCC Form 2100,
Schedule C) for new or modified
construction permits.
Applicants are also subject to the
third-party disclosure requirement of 47
CFR 73.3580. This section requires local
public notice in a newspaper of general
circulation of the filing of all
applications for new or major changes
in facilities. This notice must be
completed within 30 days of the
tendering of the application. This notice
must be published at least twice a week
for two consecutive weeks in a threeweek period. A copy of this notice must
be locally maintained along with the
application.
47 CFR 73.3700(g)(1)–(3) permits
licensees of operating low power TV
and TV translator stations that are
displaced by a broadcast television
station or a wireless service provider or
whose channel is reserved as a guard
band as a result of the broadcast
television spectrum incentive auction
conducted under section 6403 of the
Spectrum Act to submit an application
for displacement relief in a restricted
filing window to be announced by the
Media Bureau by public notice. Except
as otherwise indicated in this section,
such applications will be subject to the
rules governing displacement
applications set forth in §§ 73.3572(a)(4)
and 74.787(a)(4) of this chapter. In
addition to other interference protection
requirements set forth in the rules,
when requesting a new channel in a
displacement application, licensees of
operating low power TV and TV
translator stations will be required to
demonstrate that the station would not
cause interference to the predicted
service of broadcast television stations
on: (i) Pre-auction channels; (ii)
Channels assigned in the Channel
Reassignment Public Notice; or (iii)
Alternative channels or expanded
facilities broadcast television station
licensees have applied for pursuant to
paragraph (b)(2) of this section.
Licensees of low power TV and TV
translator stations that file mutually
exclusive displacement applications
will be permitted to resolve the mutual
exclusivity through an engineering
solution or settlement agreement. If no
resolution of mutually exclusive
displacement applications occurs, a
PO 00000
Frm 00019
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
selection priority will be granted to the
licensee of a displaced digital
replacement translator.
47 CFR 74.787 permits full power
television stations to obtain a digital-todigital replacement translator to replace
service areas lost as a result of the
incentive auction and repacking
processes. Stations submit FCC Form
2100 Schedule C to obtain a
construction permit for the new
replacement translator.
