SAGA COMMUNICATIONS, INC. (Exact Name of Registrant As Speciﬁed in Its Charter)
2017 Annual Report 2017 Annual Letter To our fellow shareholders: Every now and then I am introduced to someone who knows, kind of, who I am and what I do and they instinctively ask, ‘‘How are things at Saga?’’ (they pronounce it ‘‘say-gah’’). I am polite and correct their pronunciation (‘‘sah-gah’’) as I am proud of the word and its history. This is usually followed by, ‘‘What is a ‘‘sah-gah?’’ My response is that there are several deﬁnitions — a common one from 1857 deems a ‘‘Saga’’ as ‘‘a long, convoluted story.’’ The second one that we prefer is ‘‘an ongoing adventure.’’ That’s what we are. Next they ask, ‘‘What do you do there?’’ (pause, pause). I, too, pause, as by saying my title doesn’t really tell what I do or what Saga does. In essence, I tell them that I am in charge of the wellness of the Company and overseer and polisher of the multiple brands of radio stations that we have. Then comes the question, ‘‘Radio stations are brands?’’ ‘‘Yes,’’ I respond. ‘‘A consistent allusion can become a brand. Each and every one of our radio stations has a created personality that requires ongoing care. That is one of the things that differentiates us from other radio companies.’’ We really care about the identity, ambiance, and mission of each and every station that belongs to Saga. We have radio stations that have been on the air for close to 100 years and we have radio stations that have been created just months ago.

Reply Comments Re: Localism Proceeding (00010665.DOC;1)
Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of ) ) Broadcast Localism ) MB Docket No. 04-233 ) ) To: The Commission Reply Comments of Morgan Murphy Media Morgan Murphy Media,1 by counsel, submits these Reply Comments in the Federal Communications Commission’s (“FCC” or “Commission”) ongoing Broadcast Localism docket.2 As noted in its Comments, Morgan Murphy Media urges the Commission not to force broadcasters to devote limited station resources toward unnecessary regulation in the name of “localism.” In its Comments, Morgan Murphy Media has demonstrated that many of the Commission’s proposed regulatory burdens – purportedly designed to promote localism – will instead undermine the extensive efforts that stations in smaller markets have made to provide local service. Local broadcasting is an expensive, technologically challenging and highly competitive enterprise. Imposing the additional burdens proposed in the NPRM will have unintended consequences. Presumably the Commission does not want to unduly increase the economic pressures on smaller market broadcasters, thereby thwarting local service with “a thousand cuts” brought by unnecessary regulation. 1 Morgan Murphy Media includes the following broadcast stations: Television Wisconsin, Inc. (WISC-TV, Madison, WI), QueenB Radio Wisconsin, Inc. (WPVL[AM] & WPVL-FM, Platteville, WI; WGLR[AM] & WGLR- FM, Lancaster, WI; KIYX-FM, Sageville, IA), Spokane Television, Inc.

EE 321 AM Radio Stations in Spokane Area Fall 2017
EE 321 AM Radio Stations in Spokane Area Fall 2017 Conventional amplitude modulation (AM) radio stations use carrier frequencies spaced 10 kHz apart, over the range of 535 kHz to 1605 kHz. Demodulation occurs by frequency shifting the carrier down to the intermediate frequency (IF) of 455 kHz, and passing the signal through a fixed narrow-band filter with bandwidth 10 kHz, centered at 455 kHz. The ideal frequency response characteristic is the “brick-wall” bandpass filter shown below. The 17 AM radio stations listed below are in the greater Spokane area. Note that two have the same carrier frequency (KOFE at 1240 AM in St. Maries, ID and KCVL at 1240 AM in Colville, WA) with one other station adjacent in frequency (KSBN at 1230 in Spokane, WA). What is the topography of the area between these three locations?

February 28, 2018 Dear Fennimore Chamber of Commerce board, I have been involved in the Fennimore Chamber of Commerce for 24 years and I think back to many relationships that I have built through our membership in this organization. Our company is involved in many communities due to the nature of our business and I always feel that the Fennimore Chamber has been the most proactive in adjusting the changing landscape. As we look at the City of Fennimore and the investment that the community has made to both its K-12 and Southwest Tech schools, as well as the community swimming pool; it’s important to recognize that the city is building for the future. The Chamber of Commerce works to develop events for both the community and well as tourism related events. The Fennimore Railroad Museum and the Fennimore Doll and Toy Museum are important to the tourism efforts and the Fennimore Chamber of Commerce has provided monies to both of these organizations to assist with promotional efforts. As we look to the future, small businesses are the life blood of any community and I look to continue to be a partner in any efforts to develop to promote and increase exposure of the Community of Fennimore. As we continue into 2018, the Fennimore Chamber of Commerce is an excellent investment for your monies and just like any organization that you are a part of – you get out of the experience what you put into it. I have been able to grow many relationships during my time in the Fennimore Chamber of Commerce.

Ex Parte Notice: GN Docket No
Via ECFS July 3, 2017 Ms. Marlene H. Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Ex Parte Notice: GN Docket No. 16-142, Authorizing Permissive Use of the “Next Generation” Broadcast Television Standard Dear Ms. Dortch: On June 29, 2017, the undersigned along with Rebecca Hanson – Sr. Vice President for Strategy and Policy for Sinclair Broadcast Group, Mark Aitken – Vice President for New Technology, Sinclair Broadcast Group and John Hane – outside counsel with Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman met with members of the Commission staff to discuss the issues raised in the above- captioned proceeding. A list of those in attendance is attached. The presentation focused on the tension that appears to undergird most of the issues raised in the proceeding: how does the Commission maintain universal service while also enabling innovation? That concern permeates virtually all the issues raised in the NPRM and is significantly complicated by not having a transitionary second channel to support the deployment of the new, non-backward compatible standard. The Commission, broadcasters and other stakeholders must do the best they can within that constraining framework. We noted that true universal broadcast service does not exist today. The current ATSC 1.0 standard, based on the 8 VSB modulation protocol, does not work well inside buildings or support mobile reception. Those deficiencies disenfranchise millions of viewers, who expect their communications services to work everywhere. The ATSC 3.0 (“Next Gen”) standard overcomes those deficiencies. But bridging the gap between ATSC 1.0 and Next Gen without dedicated transition channels necessitates some temporary tradeoffs.
