Digital Television Broadcast Service; Albany, NY

The Commission requests comments on a petition filed by Hubbard Broadcasting, Inc., licensee of WNYT(TV), NTSC Channel 13, Albany, New York, proposing the substitution of DTV Channel 12 for Station WNYT(TV)'s assigned DTV Channel 15. DTV Channel 12 can be allotted to Albany, New York, in compliance with the principle community coverage requirements of Section 73.625(a) at reference coordinates (42-37-37 N. and 74-00-49 W.). However, since the community of Albany is located within 400 kilometers of the U.S.-Canadian border, concurrence by the Canadian government must be obtained for this proposal. As requested, we propose to allot DTV Channel 12 to Albany with a power of 10 and a height above average terrain (HAAT) of 421 meters.
