  • Technical Summary WEPX-TV Greenville, North Carolina Channel
    Technical Summary WEPX-TV Greenville, North Carolina Channel 36 850 kW 275 (HAAT) ION Media Greenville License, Inc. (“ION”) licensee of television station WEPX-TV, Facility ID 81508, Greenville, North Carolina (the “Station”) hereby submits this Construction Permit Modification application seeking authority to relocate its transmitter from the currently authorized site to a site that will accommodate post-repack operations (FCC LMS File No. 0000034893). This application is necessary because ION does not have access to its current tower for post-repack operations. Following the Commission’s assignment of post-repack facilities to WEPX-TV, ION was unable to reach accommodation with the tower landlord that would permit the station to continue operating from its current site. This forced ION to identify a new site for the station’s post-repack operations. Before selecting the proposed tower location, ION performed a comprehensive analysis of available tower sites in the Greenville market. In the immediate vicinity of the current tower site, ION’s market analysis found no alternatives that would provide equivalent interference-free coverage as compared to the Station’s pre-auction or authorized post-auction facilities. However, ION was able to identify an alternative tower providing superior height and coverage performance to the southeast of the current authorized site. The new tower is located approximately 32 kilometers to the southeast of the current site. Accordingly, the Station’s proposed noise limited service contour (“NLSC”) will shift to the southeast, resulting in some areas of service gain and loss. Figure 1 shows the loss area and the stations predicted to serve the loss areas using the Commission’s standard prediction methodology.

The Closing and Reassignment Public Notice assigned the Station to Transition Phase 7, but due to the combined operation with shared equipment at a common site of WWAY with both WECT, Facility ID No. 48666, Wilmington, North Carolina, and WSFX-TV, Facility ID No. 72871, Wilmington, North Carolina, the latter of which was assigned to Phase 5, WWAY was reassigned to Phase 5. See, File Number 0000024640, granted July 3, 2017. For Phase 5 stations, the Phase Completion Date was September 11, 2019.1 WWAY was granted permission to continue to operate the Station on its pre-auction channel until September 17, 2019.2 Because a key piece of equipment has failed during testing, this request seeks permission to transition the Station in a later phase by moving to Transition Phase 7, for which the testing period begins on October 19, 2019 and ends on January 17, 2019.3 The Transition Scheduling Adoption Public Notice permitted stations to propose “alternative transition solutions that could create efficiencies,” and determined that a request to modify a station’s transition deadline would be viewed favorably if the request is “otherwise compliant with [FCC] rules and [has] little or no impact on the phase assignments or transition schedule.”4 As demonstrated below, WWAY-TV’s request qualifies for such favorable treatment. 1 Incentive Auction Closing and Channel Reassignment Public Notice: The Broadcast Television Incentive Auction Closes; Reverse Auction and Forward Auction Results Announced; Final Television Band Channel Assignments Announced; Post-Auction Deadlines Announced, Public Notice, 32 FCC Red 2786 (WTB & MB 2017) (Closing and Channel Reassignment Public Notice), as extended for Phase 5 by Public Notice, DA 19-866 (Sept.

  • List of Directv Channels (United States)
    List of DirecTV channels (United States) Below is a numerical representation of the current DirecTV national channel lineup in the United States. Some channels have both east and west feeds, airing the same programming with a three-hour delay on the latter feed, creating a backup for those who missed their shows. The three-hour delay also represents the time zone difference between Eastern (UTC -5/-4) and Pacific (UTC -8/-7). All channels are the East Coast feed if not specified. High definition Most high-definition (HDTV) and foreign-language channels may require a certain satellite dish or set-top box. Additionally, the same channel number is listed for both the standard-definition (SD) channel and the high-definition (HD) channel, such as 202 for both CNN and CNN HD. DirecTV HD receivers can tune to each channel separately. This is required since programming may be different on the SD and HD versions of the channels; while at times the programming may be simulcast with the same programming on both SD and HD channels. Part time regional sports networks and out of market sports packages will be listed as ###-1. Older MPEG-2 HD receivers will no longer receive the HD programming. Special channels In addition to the channels listed below, DirecTV occasionally uses temporary channels for various purposes, such as emergency updates (e.g. Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike information in September 2008, and Hurricane Irene in August 2011), and news of legislation that could affect subscribers. The News Mix channels (102 and 352) have special versions during special events such as the 2008 United States Presidential Election night coverage and during the Inauguration of Barack Obama.
