SMITH AND FISHER EXHIBIT A ENGINEERING STATEMENT The engineering data contained herein have been prepared on behalf of ALPHA BROADCASTING CORPORATION, licensee of digital television station WSVI-DT, Channel 20 in Christiansted, Virgin Islands, in support of its Application for Construction Permit to specify operation at a new transmitter site. This proposal results from the devastation of the licensed transmitter site from a hurricane a few months ago. It is proposed to mount an ERI omnidirectional antenna at the 42.7-meter level of an existing 48.8-meter tower. Exhibit B-1 is a map upon which the predicted service contours for this new facility are plotted. Exhibit B-2 is a map showing the relationship between the licensed and proposed noise-limited contours. As shown, the proposed WSVI-DT facility does not cover any more land area than that of the licensed facility. To the extent that the proposed service contour extends beyond that of the licensed facility entirely over water, a waiver of the present Commission freeze on the filing of applications resulting in an extension of contour in any direction is respectfully requested and believed to be justified under the circumstances described herein. An elevation pattern for the proposed ERI omnidirectional antenna is included in Exhibit C. Exhibit D contains the summary results from a TVStudy interference study, which was conducted using a cell size of 2.0 kilometers and increment spacing of 1.0 kilometer. It concludes that the proposed WSVI-DT facility meets the Commission’s de minimis interference criteria to all co-channel and adjacent-channel pre-repack and post-repack full-power and Class A facilities. A detailed power density calculation is provided in Exhibit E. SMITH AND FISHER EXHIBIT A Since no change in the overall height or location of the existing tower is proposed herein, the Federal Aviation Administration has not been notified of this application. In addition, the Commission has assigned Antenna Structure Registration Number 1210980 to this tower. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing statements and the attached exhibits, which were prepared by me or under my immediate supervision, are true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.

SMITH AND FISHER EXHIBIT E POWER DENSITY CALCULATION PROPOSED WSVI-DT CHANNEL 20 – CHRISTIANSTED, VIRGIN ISLANDS Since the FCC considers the possible biological effects of RF transmissions in its environmental determinations, we have studied the matter with respect to this Christiansted facility. Employing the methods set forth in OET Bulletin No. 65 and considering a main-lobe effective radiated power of 1.01 kW, an antenna radiation center 42.7 meters above ground, and the specific elevation pattern of the proposed ERI antenna, maximum power density two meters above ground of 0.00017 mW/cm2 is calculated to occur 21 meters from the base of the tower. Since this is less than 0.1 percent of the 0.34 mW/cm2 reference for uncontrolled environments (areas with public access) surrounding a facility operating on Channel 20 (506- 512 MHz), a grant of this proposal may be considered a minor environmental action with respect to public exposure to non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation. Further, the station owner will take whatever precautionary steps are necessary, such as reducing power or leaving the air temporarily, to ensure that workers operating in the vicinity of the antenna are not exposed to excessive non-ionizing radiation. .
