1507.3

rulemaking filed by WRGB Licensee, LLC Petitioner, the licensee of WRGB, channel 6 CBS, Schenectady, New York, requesting the substitution of channel 35 for channel 6 at Schenectady in the DTV Table of Allotments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commissions Report and Order, MB Docket No. 21127; RM
11894; DA 21700, adopted and released on June 16, 2021. The full text of this document is available for download on the FCCs website at https docs.fcc.gov/public/

The proposed rule was published at 86 FR 21681 on April 23, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 35. No other comments were filed. The Petitioner states that VHF channels have certain propagation characteristics which may cause reception issues for some viewers.
In addition, WRGB has received numerous complaints from viewers unable to receive the Stations over-theair signal, despite being able to receive signals from other stations. While the proposed channel 35 noise limited contour does not completely encompass the relevant channel 6 noise limited contour, WRGB is a CBS affiliate and there are three other CBS affiliated stations that serve some portion of the loss area. In addition, the Petitioner submitted an analysis, using the Commissions TVStudy software analysis program, demonstrating that, after taking into account service provided by other CBS stations, all of the population located within WRGBs original post-DTV transition channel 6
noise limited contour will continue to receive CBS service, except for 30
people, a number the Commission considers de minimis. As the Bureau explained in the NPRM, it used the technical parameters of WRGBs original post-transition digital channel 6 facility File No. BPCDT20080307AAK in
