WCAV Phase Change Engineering Statement ENGINEERING STATEMENT Request for Waiver of Transition Phase Assignment prepared for Gray Television Licensee, LLC WCAV(DT) Charlottesville, VA Facility ID 363 This statement is prepared on behalf of Gray Television Licensee, LLC (“Gray”), licensee of digital television station WCAV(DT), Facility ID 363, Charlottesville VA, in support of Gray’s request for waiver of WCAV’s transition phase assignment. Reassignment of WCAV from Channel 19 to Channel 32 was specified in the Incentive Auction Closing and Channel Reassignment Public Notice (DA 17-317, released April 13, 2017). WCAV has been assigned to make the transition to Channel 32 at phase 5 (testing period start date August 3, 2019 and phase completion date September 6, 2019). Gray seeks to delay its transition of WCAV to its reassignment facility by one phase, to phase 6 (testing period start date September 7, 2019 and phase completion date October 18, 2019). This statement provides engineering details to support the waiver request. The change in phase is requested in order to accommodate a delay in the transition of upstream station WVIR-TV (Facility ID 70309, Charlottesville VA), which is also assigned to phase 5. WVIR-TV’s pre-auction operation is on Channel 32, the same channel as WCAV’s reassignment. Since WVIR-TV and WCAV are both licensed to Charlottesville VA and utilize transmitting locations within 0.1 km of each other, WCAV cannot commence operation on Channel 32 until WVIR-TV ceases operation on Channel 32. Citing equipment delivery delays, a request to change WVIR-TV’s transition to phase 6 has been submitted by WVIR-TV’s licensee (LMS file# 0000080372). WCAV’s Channel 19 operation during the latter portions of phase 5 is planned to utilize an interim antenna as authorized pursuant to Special Temporary Authority (“STA”, LMS File# 0000080397). The STA facility utilizes a side-mounted antenna operating at 71 kW effective radiated power (“ERP”) at 306 meters height above average terrain (“HAAT”), which is a Engineering Statement Gray Television Licensee, LLC (WCAV) (page 2 of 4) reduced facility from the licensed Channel 19 operation of 155 kW ERP and 326 meters HAAT. The STA operation on Channel 19 is necessary in order to allow tower work, removal of the pre-auction Channel 19 main antenna, and installation of the reassignment Channel 32 antenna. It is anticipated that the Channel 32 reassignment facility as authorized in WCAV’s Construction Permit (LMS file# 0000034188) will be ready for operation by the phase 5 completion date of September 6, 2019. Gray proposes to continue to operate with the Channel 19 STA facility through the end of phase 5 and into phase 6 (completion date October 18, 2019) while awaiting WVIR-TV to cease operation on Channel 32. The proposed operation on pre-auction Channel 19 during phase 6 was evaluated for potential impact to stations downstream of WCAV. According to the FCC’s transition data files, 1 one station, WZBJ-CD (Facility ID 168095, Lynchburg VA), is dependent on WCAV’s transition that would be affected at phase 5 or 6. WZBJ-CD is assigned to phase 5 (pre-auction Channel 43, reassigned to Channel 19), is downstream of WCAV, and is part of the same 99 member linked station set with WCAV and WVIR-TV. Additionally, the transition data files indicate that WCAV’s continued operation on Channel 19 has no impact to any other reassigned station until phase 7, when downstream station WAVY-TV (Facility ID 71127, Portsmouth VA) must make its transition to Channel 19. To consider the WCAV Channel 19 interim antenna STA operation which is at variance from the licensed Channel 19 facility, additional analysis is provided herein to determine the particulars of the existing dependencies and any new dependencies. An interference study using FCC TVStudy software (OET Bulletin 69) was conducted to determine compliance with the 2.0 percent limit of additional interference permitted during the transition with respect to pertinent nearby full service and Class A television stations. The TVStudy report is supplied in Table 1 for relevant station operations on their pre-auction and reassignment channels that may be affected by WCAV’s STA operation on Channel 19 through phase 6. The analysis was conducted using a 2 km cell size and 0.2 km terrain profile increment. 1 http://data.fcc.gov/download/incentive-auctions/Current_Transition_Files/ Engineering Statement Gray Television Licensee, LLC (WCAV) (page 3 of 4) The interference analysis shows that the proposed operation of WCAV into phase 6 would cause 2.72 percent unique interference to WZBJ-CD. This exceeds by a small margin the 2 percent threshold permitted for interference contribution by any individual station for operation during the transition. Gray is also licensee of WZBJ-CD and consents to the increased interference that would be experienced by WZBJ-CD. No other stations assigned to phase 5 or 6 are affected. 2 Therefore, the proposed phase change complies with the interference protection requirements for operation during the transition. No new dependency or linked station set is created with respect to interference created to other stations at phase 5 or 6. Table 1 shows that the only other downstream dependency is WAVY-TV, which occurs later in the transition at phase 7. Default TVStudy analysis indicates that after phase 5 WCAV’s licensed facility would receive 4.70 percent unique interference from WZBJ-CD. Table 2 provides an analysis of incoming interference to WCAV’s interim antenna STA operation on Channel 19 for operation through phase 6. The WZBJ-CD Channel 19 reassignment facility will cause 2.49 percent additional interference to the WCAV Channel 19 interim antenna STA facility. Gray consents to the increased interference that would be caused by WZBJ-CD, which is just above the 2 percent interference threshold permitted for transition operations. Table 2 shows that WCAV will not receive interference from any other station transitioning at phase 5 or 6. Therefore, no new dependency or linked station set is created with respect to interference received from any other station. In summary, the proposed change to phase 6 for WCAV involves interference acceptance with WZBJ-CD’s reassignment facility (2.72 percent received by WZBJ-CD and 2.49 percent received by WCAV), will otherwise comply with the interference allowance established for the transition period, and will not create any new linked station set or dependency. 2Table 1 also shows 16.66 percent interference caused to Gray’s licensed WHSV-TV reassignment facility (Channel 20 Harrisonburg VA). As described in the WCAV interim antenna STA request (LMS file# 0000080397) this is a reduction of interference from the WCAV licensed facility where 16.99 percent interference is caused to WHSV-TV by the licensed WCAV facility. WHSV-TV achieved an early transition to its reassignment Channel 20, and the temporary interference received from WCAV during the transition was addressed in the exhibits underlying the WHSV-TV phase change request (LMS file# 0000054663).
