This instant petition is submitted following the Commission's announcement that it would resume acceptance ofchannel change petitions.2 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.401, 73.616, 73.622(a) as amended by Third Periodic Review ofthe Commission's Ru1es and PoliCies Affecting the Conversion to Digital Television, 23 FCC Rcd 2994, ~ 128 (reI.

Specifically, the Post-Transition DTV Table ofAllotments would be amended as follows: Present Proposed Huntsville, AL 19,*24,32,41,49 *24,32,41,46,49 Licensee is seeking the channel substitution because operation on Channel 46 would allow the Station to serve more ofits current DTV service population than operation on Channel 19. As the attached Technical Exhibit demonstrates, the proposed facility would allow 91 % replication ofthe Station's current DTV service population instead ofthe 71 % replication permitted by the Station's current allotment.3 The Technical Exhibit also demonstrates that the proposed facility complies with the Commission's rules for post-transition DTV operation. The Station's proposed service area encompasses its community oflicense, and the proposed parameters comply with the Commission's interference standards.4 The proposed facility would serve approximately 134% ofthe viewers currently receiving analog service and 128% ofthe currently allotted post­ transition DTV service population.5 For the convenience ofthe Commission, we hereby provide the present and proposed "Appendix B" parameters: Present: Facility State and City NTSC DTV 10 Ch Ch ERP HAAT Antenna Latitude Longitude kW (m) 10 (OOMMSS) (OOOMMSS) 48693 AL I HUNTSVILLE 19 19 40.7 514 344419 863156 3 See Attachment A, Technical Exhibit at 1. 4 See id. at 2; 47 C.F.R. §§ 73.616(b),(e), 73.623(d), 73.625(a). 5 See Attachment A, Technical Exhibit at I. 2366814-1 -2- 1. .I Proposed: 6 48693 ~ HUNTSVILLE _....:..:19:....JQi] 5751 531 I TBA 1_3..:....;4,-,-44..:....;1....::..9..l-1__8:;..::6....::..31;:..::;S-,,-61 For the foregoing reasons, Licensee respectfully requests that the Commission amend the Post-Transition DTV Table ofAllotments as proposed.

Respectfully submitted, LOCAL TV ALABAMA LICENSE, LLC By: Its Attorney Dow Lohnes PLLC 1200 New Hampshire Avenue, N.W. Suite 800 Washington, D.C. 20036-6802 (202) 776-2000 Dated: June 19,2008 6 To be assigned by the Commission. 2366814-1 -3- "t, ATTACHMENT A Technical Exhibit 2366814-1 du Treil, Lundin & Rackley, Inc. ____________________~ ConsuItingEngineers TECHNICAL EXIllBIT PETITION FOR RULE MAKING TO MODIFY THE DTV TABLE OF ALLOTMENTS STATION WHNT-DT illJNTSVILLE, ALABAMA This Technical Exhibit was prepared on behalfoftelevision station WHNT-DT assigned to Huntsville, Alabama (analog channel 19, pre-transition digital channel 59, and current post-transition digital channel 19) in support ofa Petitionfor Rule Making to modify the DTV allotment ofWHNT-DT to substitute channel 46 for the current channel 19 DTV allotment. The Commission adopted channel 19 for WHNT-TV's post-transition digital operation. Specifically, WHNT-DTwas assigned channel 19 for its post-transition Appendix B operation with a nondirectional antenna maximum effective radiated power (ERP) of40.7 kilowatts (kW) and an antenna height above average terrain (HAAT) of514 meters. However, the Appendix B facilities adopted by the FCC will not permit replication of WHNT's current digital operation. Below is a tabulation ofthe predicted service population and area based on the current WHNT-TV operations and Appendix B allotment and the herein proposed WHNT-DT Appendix B facilities: Facilitv Service PODulation Service Area Licensed WHNT Analog (Ch.19 1290 kW/531 m, ND Antenna) 949,469 22,109 km2 Licensed WHNT Digital (Ch. 59 1000 kW/514 m, ND Antenna) 1,402,376 35,643 km2 Current WHNT Appendix B (Ch. 19 40.7 kW/514 m, ND Antenna) 992,000 23,609 km2 Proposed WHNT Appendix B (Ch. 46 208 kW/577 m, DA Antenna) 1,274,000 33,006 km2 As indicated above, the herein proposed Appendix B facilities will allow 91 % replication ofthe current digital service population and 134% ofthe current analog service population. As a comparison, WHNT's current Appendix B allotment allows 71 % replication of the current digital service population and 105% ofthe current analog service population du Treil, Lundin & Rackley, Inc. _____________________________________'ConsultingEngineers Page 2 Therefore, WHNT-TV respectfully requests that the Commission modify Appendix B to specify operation on Channel 46 from its licensed analog site using an "omni­ oid" type ofdirectional antenna.

However, the proposed WHNT-DT service area of32,006 square kilometers is less than that of another station in the market, WAAY-DT on Channel 32 assigned to Huntsville, Alabama which serves 36,626 square kilometers. Therefore, pursuant to 73.622(f)(5), as the proposed WHNT­ DT service area remains equal to or less than that ofthe largest station in the market, the proposed effective radiated power and antenna height above terrain is allowed to exceed the limits defmed in Section 73.622(f)(8). The proposed WHNT-DT Appendix B facilities will comply with the 0.5 percent interference standard adopted by the FCC for post-transition DTV operations as shown in Figure 1. 1 Charles A.

As shown below, the proposed channel change from Channel 12 to Channel 29 would result in a substantial increase in signal receivability for WFXL’s core viewers and enable viewers to receive the Station’s signal with a significantly smaller antenna. The proposed channel substitution would serve the public interest because WFXL has had a long history of dealing with severe reception problems. The reception issues were 1 47 C.F.R. § 1.401. 2 See Engineering Statement of John E. Hidle, P.E., In Support of a Petition to Amend the Table of Allotments for WFXL, Albany, GA (“Engineering Statement”). exacerbated by the analog to digital conversion.
