This week's STAB (special temporary permits) for new operations were issued by FCC to El Paso's KROD-TV (Channel 4), which began tests Dec. 4 and is planning programs starting Dec. 14 or earlier; to Colorado Springs' KKTV (Channel 11), which is reported all set to turn on the juice Sunday, Dec. 7; to K0P0-TV, Tucson, Ariz. (Channel 13), which has DuMont transmitter due next week but plans start Feb. 1; and to WFMJ-TV, Youngstown (Channel 73), still awaiting delivery of RCA transmitter. El Paso station's start, earlier than announced, will be followed by rival KTSM-TV (Channel 9) on or about Dec. 15 -- so that new TV market is now ready. Spokane's KHQ-TV (Channel 6) tells us this week that it has set Dec. 20 as target date, thus meeting rival KRLY-TV's promised Christmas start (Vol. 8:48). There may be a few more vhf "sleepers" because of transmitters easily avail- able or already delivered -- but, if so, they're making no loud promises. Grantee we know, which already has transmitter, is WLVA-TV, Lynchburg, Va. (Channel 13) -- but it hasn't yet asked for STAor indicated plans other than Feb. 1 target (Vol. 8:48); CBS -TV announced this week WLVA-TV would affiliate on that date. Roanoke's WSLS-TV (Channel 10) didn't get on air Dec. 1, as expected; ran into trouble which RCA experts are trying now to patch up. Management now says, "Any day now." It will go on programs within days after tuning, probably this week. Honolulu's KGMB-TV (Channel 9) did get started Dec. 1, is now on regular schedule and enjoying nice lineup of network shows via kinescope. Excellent recep- tion is reported, with 5000 of area's 86,000 families due to have TVs by Dec. 15. KGMB-TV is claiming "first" because rival KONA (Channel 11), though it began tests Nov. 22, had to sign off until probably mid -December while new 300 -ft. tower is installed at third site selected -- a lot on Alamoana Blvd. It ran into trouble at first temporary site, the tower of KPOA (AM), and 6 GE engineers are working to get it back on the air as as possible. quicklyyT T T T As for uhf, no new stations have yet gone on the air since Portland's KPTV. WHUM-TV, Reading, Pa. (Channel 61), though its 1000 -ft. tower was completed this week, now looks like poor bet before Jan. 1, if by then. And at this writing, RCA's priority customers, notably in Atlantic City and York, which are otherwise ready but also awaiting transmitters, will be lucky to get on the air this month. GE did ship its first 100 -watt transmitter this week, however, to WKAB-TV, Mobile, Ala. (Channel 48) with antenna promised by Dec. 12. And WEEK -TV, Peoria (Channel 43) is to get next one. Both could start by Jan. 1. There's possibility uhf and vhf may get even start in Mobile, for WALA-TV COPYRIGHT 1932 BY RADIO NEWS BUREAU www.americanradiohistory.com (Channel 10) is reputed to have temporary 2 -kw RCA vhf transmitter on way and to be planning start Christmas week. STA has been asked for Dec. 20, but not yet issued. [For details about plans for other upcoming stations, as reported to us by principals in our continuing survey, see p. 7; for latest dope on the availability of transmitters from all manufacturers, see story p. 3.] FCC CIINTS 6, SPLITS ON 'JOINT Al ' CASES: FCC quarried 6 more CPs from pending file of applications this week, including 10th educational grant. All commercial grants came from Group A, all but one to AM broadcasters, all but one uhf. At same time, in a tight 4-3 decision it is likely to reverse later, Commission turned thumbs down on applications filed for single TV station by 2 AMs in same city. Commission got to 113th Group A city in granting these CPs: Monroe, La., KNOE, No. 8; Lima, 0., WIMA, No. 35; Beaumont, Tex., Television Broadcasters, No. 31; Yakima, Wash., KIT, No. 23 & KIMA, No. 29. Monroe grantee is ex-lieut. gov. of Louisiana James A. Noe, who also had an application on file for New Orleans, where he operates WNOE. Beaumont grantee is a partnership of 3 oilmen and James A. Newborn, latter holding CP for Gadsden, Ala. and having applications pending for Minden, La. and Tyler, Tex. Yakima grantee is owned by Carl E. Haymond, who has also applied for Tacoma, where he owns KMO. [For further details on grants, see TV Addenda 15-U herewith.] Educational grant went to New Jersey Dept. of Education, on uhf Channel 19, over dissents of Comrs. Sterling and Webster. Former stated he believed grant ille- gal because funds for construction aren't available. Latter reiterated previous dissents from such grants (Vol. 8:33). After receiving grant, Dr. F.M. Raubinger, N.J. State Commissioner of Education, conceded lack of funds, said Legislature would have to provide special appropriation. Committee appointed by Gov. Driscoll, headed by RCA's research v.p. Dr. E.W. Engstrom (Vol.8:44), met immediately, said it hoped to report early next year on ways and means of implementing grant. "Joint AM" decision was to send "McFarland letter" to Macon Television Co. (WBML & WNEX), Macon, Ga. and El -Cor Television Inc. (WELM & WENY), Elmira, N.Y., saying FCC doubts grants would be in public interest and that hearing is required. "We are unable to determine now," Commission wrote, "that such a relation- ship would not be inimical in a significant degree to the normally expected arms - length competition in the operation of the two AM stations...The economics and psy- chology of such a joint venture militate against the separate and independent operation of the two AM stations." Comrs. Bartley, Sterling & Merrill dissented on Macon case. First two were for immediate grant on grounds it would bring service quickly, would enable vhf & uhf stations to start about same time in Macon, wouldn't decrease AM competition. Though Comr. Merrill dissented, he apparently wasn't for an immediate grant, merely said: "I think that any public hearing on this case should be held in Macon at the earliest possible time. I do not think the action taken...meets that objective." Chairman Walker issued separate statement saying he concurred in sending letter-- but: "I wish to make clear that I am not persuaded that a hearing upon the application will ultimately prove necessary." His statement was puzzling, since pur- pose of McFarland letter (required by recent amendment bearing Arizona Senator's name) is to give applicant chance to show hearing isn't necessary. Prevailing opin- ion is that Walker, and probably Merrill, will favor grants when applicants reply. Though dissenters felt same way about Elmira applicant, they joined majority in sending it a McFarland letter, seeing no need for repetition. Ironically, appli- cant for vhf channel 13 in Macon, WMAZ, which probably would have received CP this week, was held up because city is 189.2 miles from WAFM-TV, Birmingham -- .3 mi. too short. FCC is considering means of correcting spacing, possibly by assigning channel to town near Macon, as did with Pittsburgh and Nashville. Tity T T M Engineering hasn't been major factor in hearings so far. In fact, the FCC sought to keep engineering questions out of hearings when it drafted end -of -freeze www.americanradiohistory.com - 3 - decision. This week, however, engineering and coverage became substantial questions in Flint case. Examiner Benito Gaguine admitted WFDF's exhibits which seek to show that its site, north of Flint, will bring service to people who need it more than those to be served by competitive applicants WJR and Butterfield Theatres. Latter would put Grade A signal over Detroit as well as Flint, are permitted to show they'd reach more people. Examiner also permitted showings on adjacent- channel interference --something else Commission tried to preclude. In his rulings, he conceded that such showings are subject to error and speculation, said he wasn't indicating how much weight they'd be given. Another site -allocation problem came up this week when FCC told WMIT(FM), seeking assignment of Channel 18 to Clingmans Peak, N.C. (Mt. Mitchell), that chan- nel has to go to a community, not a transmitter site.

  • DISH Network Adds MTV S to DISH Latino Package
    DISH Network Adds MTV S to DISH Latino Package LITTLETON, Colo.--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)--Aug. 25, 1999-- EchoStar's 20-Channel DISH Latino Package Offers the Most Comprehensive Spanish-Language Programming Package in the United States EchoStar Communications Corp. (NASDAQ: DISH, DISHP) is pleased to announce that DISH Network™ will add MTV S to DISH Latino, the most complete Spanish-language television and audio programming package ever offered in the United States. DISH Latino offers Spanish-speaking customers a variety of television and audio programming from Latin America. Already a leading provider of Spanish-language TV programming, DISH Network is proud to be the first satellite television provider to offer the fast-growing U.S. Spanish-speaking audience the most extensive selection of news, sports, movies, music and other entertainment. "For the first time ever in the U.S., Latin music programming takes center stage," Eric Sherman, Director of Operations at MTV S. "An entire generation of U.S.-born Spanish-speaking young people will find the music of their lives and their culture represented only at MTV S. But beware, this isn't their parents' music. MTV S' mix of Latin Pop and Rock en Espanol represents the newest sounds of today." "MTV S is a great addition to DISH Latino by appealing to the interests of the young Hispanic community," said Michael Schwimmer, vice president of Programming at EchoStar. "The U.S. Hispanic population is over 31 million, and growing, yet this community has been largely disregarded by a majority of television providers. DISH Latino offers 20 television channels to millions of Spanish-speaking homes." MTV S targets the unique character and voice of the American Hispanic community.

Where third party material has been identified, permission from the respective copyright holder must be sought BBC Trust response to Mediatique’s value for money study: the BBC’s distribution arrangements for its UK Public Services Introduction The BBC exists to educate, inform and entertain through a broad range of high quality programmes and services on TV, Radio and Online. It is also tasked with distributing this content to audiences across the country in ways that are convenient to them. In 2012-13 the cost of these distribution arrangements was £233million or 6.5 percent of the licence fee. The BBC Trust exists to maximise the value audiences receive in return for the licence fee. To help it do this, the Trust commissioned Mediatique to carry out a value for money review of the BBC’s distribution arrangements in the UK. This is one of a number of value for money reports received by the Trust from various organisations, including the NAO, all of which help the Trust to identify ways to improve the way the BBC is run.
