There WTFDA! was an Nvidia Shield running showing a live TROPO! ATSC 3.0 broadcast using the tuner and even a TiVo DVR recording ATSC 3.0 broadcasts. Right now, the cost is over $800 for the full developer kit, but a retail version will reportedly be a lot less expensive. Sinclair has promised that they will seed the markets they launch ATSC 3.0 in this year with a “cheap” ATSC 3.0 tuner. Some sources have said they expect the tuners to get down to below $50, but for now, mass production on a consumer tuner has not started. Once again it was a slow month with no DX reports of any type received. Nick Langan is helping Jim Thomas on the WTFDA database keep up with all the new Mexican FM stations and changes. Thanks Nick! CU next month! There was some really good tropo happening in the Gulf area around April 21st through the VHF-UHF Digest 3 May 2019 AT 815 FM RADIO STATIONS AND 260 AM STATIONS Can You Say "Enough is Enough"?? Jim Thomas I learned very recently, though two years late, the government licensing office CONATEL Honduras made a bold statement in May 2017, by passing a bill that slammed the door on any new broadcast licenses. NOT just on FM, but FM, AM, and even TV! Holy cow! Just to keep things in perspective, Honduras geographically in comparison, is smaller than the state of Kansas. I became aware of this decision three days ago. In early 2017 and up until early summer, I was deeply involved in entering the Honduras FM stations in the WTFDA FM database. Erika Speers, one of the attorneys and legal document managers with CONATEL, was communicating with me two and three times per week via email, sending me PDF documents as I requested them. Not once did she mention this decision to me. Possibly she wasn't allowed to. Seeing how it had been two years since the FM radio stations from Honduras were entered into the FM database, I figured I was overdue in checking for updates. I started checking for any FM activity for Honduras a couple weeks ago and kept noticing the LATEST FM actions or license approvals were in 2017. There isn't anything newer. I started digging through the CONATEL/SITAE website, looking at the PDF files available for download. I was trying to see if I could learn anything about NEW licenses. This past Saturday, BOOM! There it was. I found it. It was the document that had been published in the La Gaceta, the legal paper in Tegucigalpa. I downloaded the document and sent it to Raymie Humbert and Jonathan Hamilton, WTFDA members who are both fluent in Spanish. I asked them to go to page three, to the lower right column, read that particular information, and then give me their take on the matter. This is what Raymie said, " Nice catch. Seems like they suspended all awards except repeaters saying they had too many applicants for remaining frequencies and in TV the market was very fragmented preventing the creation of serious economies of scale." And this is what Jon's take was on the information- "Hi Jim, Article 1 orders the suspension of granting new FM permits and licenses, effective on the start date of the resolution, in broadcast areas 1-9. Article 2 deals with allowing the continued use of previously allocated frequencies, granted they do not cause interference. LPFMs are not allowed to use repeaters. Article 3 of the resolution says it will go into effect on the day it is published in La Gaceta (12 May, 2017). That's my take, anyways. Hope this helps! - Jon" In the words of Paul Harvey, "And now you know the rest of the story. Good day!" VHF-UHF Digest 4 May 2019 USING GOOGLE MAPS TO DETERMINE HOME ADDRESS LATITUDE & LONGITUDE Steps to find Latitude and Longitude coordinates for your home address: 1) Go to Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/ 2) Zoom into your home address location as close as the magnifier will allow; Selected location 3) RIGHT CLICK on your home address with your PC mouse pointer. Box will RIGHT click on location with the pop up as illustrated (Figure 1); PC mouse will bring up this box. Click on *What’s here?* 4) Follow directions on each map to arrive at the Latitude and Longitude Then proceed to for your home location. The Latitude next illustration and Longitude format as illustrated in Figure 3 must be used to match FIGURE 1 the Latitude & Longitude format that is used in the WTFDA FM Database. TIP: Google Maps allows you to zoom into your home location close enough that you can get EXACT coordinates for where your antennas are located on your property. This may require Selected location switching to satellite view so you can actually see your house and items on your property. Next, LEFT click on this GPS address- Click here Then proceed to FIGURE 2 next illustration Selected location This is the Latitude and Longitude for your selected location. The *usable* Latitude and Longitude for the next step would be- 40:41:21.3 N 74:02:40.4 W This is the required format for use on the NOAA website and matches the WTFDA FM Database format for determining Great Circle global distances. You may want to record this information with your logbook notes so that you don’t have to repeat this step in the future.

REASON FOR PLAN The State of Minnesota is subject to major emergencies and disasters, natural, technological and criminal, which can pose a significant threat to the health and safety of the public. The ability to provide citizens with timely emergency information is a priority of emergency managers statewide. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) was developed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide emergency information to the public via television, radio, cable systems and wire line providers. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, (IPAWS) was created by FEMA to aid in the distribution of emergency messaging to the public via the internet and mobile devices. It is intended that the EAS combined with IPAWS be capable of alerting the general public reliably and effectively. This plan was written to explain who can originate EAS alerts and how and under what circumstances these alerts are distributed via the EAS and IPAWS. II. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF PLAN A. Purpose When emergencies and disasters occur, rapid and effective dissemination of essential information can significantly help to reduce loss of life and property. The EAS and IPAWS were designed to provide this type of information. However; these systems will only work through a coordinated effort.

Objectives 1. Describe the EAS administrative structure within Minnesota. (See Section V) 2.
