AUTHORIZATION FORM LPTV CHANNEL SEARCH AT
(city)____________,(state) ______

LPTV stations are permitted on a non-interfering secondary basis.
Using the geographic coordinates of your community, our computer will determine the exact distance to the nearest station or assignment on each channel.

Prior to construction of any LPTV station, a FCC Construction Permit is required. The next step following the frequency search is to file such an application, which is submitted on FCC Form 346.This Form includes an engineering section, which our office routinely completes along with all associated technical exhibits, legal, financial, and programming sections. This form is completed with the assistance of an attorney specializing in practice before the FCC. Along with the LPTV Frequency Search results you will receive our consulting agreement for filing your application. In our consulting agreement we guarantee your application to be “accepted for filing with the FCC”. Our fee for the application is $3,950.00.

During the filing window it is possible that you have a competitor file for the same channel. This is rare with LPTV because applications are filed on an “as needed” basis. The FCC does not open a window for competing applications. The only way you would have a competitor was if another entity filed for a nearby channel and overlapping coverage area during the same filing period. If this were to occur it would be settled by a lottery or application amendment.

The total time from tender to grant is typically nine to twelve months.

All stations and assignments listed in the FCC files will be considered by the program in the preparation of the study.

An engineering analysis of the results and our recommendation will accompany the study. The study will require approximately four (4) weeks from receipt of your authorization. To authorize a Frequency Allocation Study of the community listed above, sign this form, retain a copy, and return the other to us with your check for $895.00.
