FCC APPROVES HD POWER INCREASE FOR FM (or, there goes the neighborhood..)
FCC APPROVES HD POWER INCREASE FOR FM
The http://www.allaccess.com/search?q=fcc&m=n FCC Media Bureau has adopted rules to allow FM stations to increase their digital http://www.allaccess.com/search?q=iboc&m=n IBOC signals' power up to 10% of their analog power. The rule change permits the power increase on a voluntary basis, giving stations the ability to increase digital power by 6 dB. Stations already grandfathered as "super-powered" facilities in excess of current class maximums will be limited to protect against interference. The new rules also establish application procedures for digital power increases up to 10 dB, and create remediation procedures to settle interference disputes within 90 days, and leave the issue of digital power levels open for revisitation if the new signals interfere with analog reception. The new rules will be effective 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. -- "You've got the brain-washed, that's the Democrats, and the brain-dead, that's the Republicans!" - Mark Russell |
