SUMMARY OF SUPPLEMENTAL ENGINEERING EXHIBITS PREPARED FOR WHMI-FM HOWELL, MICHIGAN 1. Distribution of Grandfathered Superpowered FM Stations in CONUS – A study was conducted using the FCC CDBS engineering database to identify grandfathered superpowered FM stations in the continental United States. Only stations in the non-reserved (commercial) band were employed. The analysis was based on the effective radiated power and antenna height above average terrain. A station was defined as superpowered if its calculated 60 dBu contour distance exceeded that for a reference station of the same class by more than 10%. For example, for Class B stations, if the combination of effective radiated power and antenna height above average terrain produced a predicted 60 dBu contour exceeding (52.0 km x 1.10 = ) 57.2 km, it would fall into the superpowered category.* 2. Grandfathered Superpowered FM Exceeding 10% of Class Contour Distance – Tabulation of stations identified above and shown in the map. This list has been revised to include Facility ID and licensee information. 3. First Adjacent Victims of GSS 10% Station Predicted Interference – Other stations first-adjacent to GSS 10% stations were identified within the Section- 73.207 spacing requirement plus 50 km buffer. A contour analysis was conducted to determine if analog or IBOC interference was predicted. The protected contour used was 54 dBu for Class B stations, 57 dBu for Class B1 stations, and 60 dBu for all other stations. Analog interference was evaluated using a D/U ratio of -6 dB (per Section 73.215 of the FCC Rules) and IBOC interference was estimated using a D/U ratio of -12 dB (6 dB lower than the present value listed in Section 73.215 of the FCC Rules.) The percentage of analog and IBOC interfering contour overlap is tabulated to gauge the interference effect on the subject station. 4. Tabulation of Victim Stations by City and State – Victim stations identified above are listed by City and State with additional information about the facility and the licensee.

The following stations were previously inadvertently left off the list, but have been added: KZLA-FM, KLSX(FM), KKLA-FM, KPWR(FM) and KLYY(FM).
