Thanks everyone for your support of the WTFDA! This month we welcome into the club Scott Levitt, Bob Rush, who rejoined after an absence, and a familiar

name to many of you, Prof. Arnaldo Coro Antich, better known in DX circles as Arnie Coro, host of the Dxers Unlimited radio hobby show on Radio Havana Cuba. It’s great to have you all with us!

NOT ONLY IS IT THE HOLIDAY SEASON, BUT Once again we are heading into Winter E Skip season, and for those who didn’t notice, there was some evening Es noticed by Jon in Ontario and Nick in New Jersey on November 29th. I saw their posts, but much too late. It would be worth keeping a watch for Es on the WTFDA Bulletin board or our TV and FM Facebook group. You never know when Es will flare up.

ELAD? Back at the end of October, David Mackes sent in this note: “Other than the “normal” things you see on the web, have you received any other information on the Elad FDM-S3? I know you have an S2 and I wondered if they sent S2 owners any additional

information on the S3. It looks interesting based on what’s known so far. Also is HDSDR still your program on choice?” A few other DXers and myself subscribe to the Elad support group email list, and so far Elad has been tight-lipped about the S3 despite the requests of many people for more information on it. Personally I have three SDRs here and I really don’t see any need for a 4th, considering that there won’t be much DXing going on here due to the large number of translators and LPFMs on the dial now. The only real reason I can see to purchase one is to be able to record the entire FM band in one swipe. I can do 6mhz with the Elad or up to 10mhz with SDRplay, so for me that’s sufficient. I know that the S3 is not going to be inexpensive, and with me being retired, I can’t easily justify the expense. And, as luck would have it, I just found this email that Elad USA sent to Saul Chernos:

Saul,

The cost will be approximately $1000, but I'm not sure if we can release it before the end of the year. This is the detail I will wait for.

Thank you again for your interest in our products.

So, now we have an approximate price but not much else. We’ll keep looking for more specific information.

David’s last question was about HDSDR. HDSDR is an older program, which is why some folks don’t care for it. But it has a great analog style S meter that nobody else has. If you do any type of phasing, you need this to be able to

accurately find nulls to phase out your locals. And although it’s an older program, in the past year it has had an update, so the program is still alive. I still believe that HDSDR, when used with a virtual audio cable (VAC) and RDS Spy decoding software, is more sensitive than anything else available. It certainly is more sensitive than SDRUno, old or new versions. I think SDRUno is a great program, but I get annoyed when RDSSpy makes a decode and Uno doesn’t. SDRUno says it has a “DX Mode” for RDS decoding but even with that I don’t think it’s quite as good as RDSSpy. There are other UI programs around such as SDR#, Elad’s own software and SDR Console. SDR# is now for Airspy users only and console is something I used a long time ago and didn’t especially like for a variety of reasons. Maybe sometime I’ll try it again.

FM DATABASE WORK Recently all the FM stations in Managua, Nicaragua were updated with exact co-ordinates. Five new stations were added to the Aruba list. The US and Canada continue to be updated daily. Our webhost also recently upgraded the server our database resides on and in the process, our database broke. Fortunately we were able to get it back up again thanks to our Python guru in Ohio. We owe him big time.

NEXT STOP 2018

Well, we made it through 2017. DX clubs are facing challenges and have been for years. WTFDA is no exception and we are probably facing more of them since we’re the smallest of the NA clubs and the FCC seems determined to destroy our hobby by dumping AM station repeating translators and low powered FM stations into every available crack in the spectrum so as to make Dxing impossible in many areas. There are other challenges for us. But the clubs push onward and try to stay relevant in this age where clubs are mostly irrelevant to younger DXers. Times change and preferences change but we’re still here for you, as long as you want us to be. Take care and we hope we’ll see you here in 2018! -Mike

We've now got all the repack applications on file, and every repacked station has had an opportunity to object to their assignment & ask for more power. The next step was to give stations that weren't repacked an opportunity to file for power increases. That accounts for many of the upgrades in this month's column.

The Commission kept their press office busy on November 16th(grin)!

- ATSC 3.0 has been authorized.Stations may begin broadcasts in 3.0. They must arrange for some other station to simulcast their programming in ATSC 1.0, so viewers with existing receivers don't lose service. Advance public notice must be provided – viewers will need to rescan.

- Duopoly regulations have been relaxed.Under the old rules, two stations in the same market could be co-owned only if at least eight independently-owned stations would remain after the merger. That limitation is gone. Under the old rules, two of the four top-rated stations in a market could not be co-owned. (in practice, this meant anABC, CBS, Fox, or NBC station could only be co-owned with an independent, CW, or My station) That rule is not repealed entirely, but the Commission will allow these mergers if a public interest showing can be made.

- TV joint sales agreements (JSAs) will no longer be treated as duopolies.

- Daily newspapers may now own TV stations in the same market.

- Radio and TV stations in the same market may now be commonly owned.Both of these restrictions were often waived. Often, that was because the stations were co-owned before the rules restricting those practices were enacted.

A number of “shadows” (translators) in Chiapas in southern Mexico have surrendered their licenses. Mexican translators usually operate on the same channel as their primary stations.

Translators relaying XHSBB-TDT on channel 48:Altamirano, Calchihuitan, Chenalho, Chilon, Hultlupan, Ocosingo, San Juan Cancuc, Santiago el Pinar, Solistahuacan, Soyalo, Tecpatan, Tenejapa, Tumbala

Translators relaying XHTTG-TDT on channel 44:Chiapa de Corzo, Francisco Leon, Jantenango de la Paz, Jesus Maria Garza, Ocotepec, Pantepec, San Fernando

In the U.S., a number of LPTV licenses have been canceled or modified to revert to old parameters. DTV America and four related companies were called on the carpet for “leapfrogging” LPTV stations. (You may remember something similar happened with FM translator permits a few years ago. To the best of my knowledge the FM culprit companies were not related to DTV America.)

DECEMBER 2017 ··· 26 ··· TV NEWS

In 2009 the FCC held a filing window for rural LPTV stations. To participate, the applicant had to specify a transmitter site at least 121km from the “reference coordinates” of any Top 100 Nielsen TV market. The firms in question won more than 350 authorizations in this window, then purchased morefrom other companies. Eventually most of these authorizations would be built and receive a license-to-cover. After construction and licensing, some of the stations filed for permission to go dark.

Last September, the Commission received a tip that there was no transmitting equipment or towers atmany of these licensed sites. Investigation confirmed the tip. Inspectors found many of the licensed sites were built with temporary equipment and antennas. The allegation is that a site would be built just long enough to receive a license to cover, then would receive permission to go temporarily dark. The license would be modified to specify a new site closer to a larger city. It would be built at that new site, but again using temporary gear. One station, cited as an example by the Commission, made four hops to move from Montgomery, Alabama to Mobile. Several stations won in a window for stations outside the Top 100 markets, were able to move into those larger markets.

The Commission has reached a Consent Decree with these five companies. They had a deal to sell many of these stations to unrelated third parties; those sales will be allowed to proceed. Some permits for new stations will be surrendered; some applications to modify existing stations will be dismissed. A number of stations will be modified to revert to previous sites.

I've marked these changes in the listings with “(DTVA)”. (There were a number of other LPTV licenses canceled this month for reasons that have nothing to do with DTV America)

The cities listed for LPTV stations (not just DTVA's) often have little relationship to reality. Full-power TV stations must provide a certain level of signal across their “Principal Community”. (“City of License”) LPTV grew out of the TV translator service – in which the FCC recognized it was often impossible for a station to serve an entire community. Indeed, it was often desirable for a station to serve only part of a community. So this minimum signal level regulation doesn't apply to LPTVs. Which means a LPTV station listed as Louisville, Kentucky may not, in fact, provide any signal at all in Louisville.

I have looked up the coordinates listed for these deleted and modified LPTVs. If they fall well outside the listed city, I have included the actual location in parenthesis with the tech parameters. For example, W27DH is listed with the FCC as a Louisville station. The transmitter is located near Evansville, Indiana.

The five firms will also pay a forfeiture of $1.5 million to the U.S. Treasury. (this may be worth noting: when the FCC collects a fine, the Commission doesn't keep the money. It goes in the general U.S. Treasury.)

As I looked up the coordinates, it appeared some of these reverted sites may not be economically viable. Iwill not be surprised if we see more of these stations surrendered. Another side effect... will be the opening of more channels for other LPTVs displaced by repacking. It is unlikely all displaced LPTVs can find new channels, but with some of the DTVA facilities “out of the way” it's more likely than it was.

Two of these stations are listed as Davenport, Illinois. Best I can tell there is no such place. Looking at the coordinates I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be Davenport, Iowa.

K22IC Strong City, Oklahoma has requested Special Temporary Authority to move to channel 36 due to interference. The station rebroadcasts the signals of K43KT Elk City, received over the air. K43KThas of course been displaced by the repack – and has ended up on channel 22. K22IC cannot receive channel 22 signals from Elk City if it's also transmitting on channel 22... So, K22IC moves to 36 and becomes K36NV.

Channel-Sharing Update:Sharing arrangements in boldface below have already happened; see the date in the Notes column. Two stations have announced sharing effective dates in the future. Three stations have filed for an extension of their forced signoff date and have indicated in their extension requests that they have channel-sharing agreements in place with a specific other station. However, those agreements have not yet been filed.

Several stations have changed their principal communities (“City of License”, or “COL”). They're sharing guests on host stations whose signals aren't adequate across the stations' old principal communities. I apologize for the small font; it is challenging to get these to fit in a reasonable amountof space!

Caribbean FM News Jim Thomas November 2017

HaitiConatel continues with their battle against 300+ pirate radio stations operating on the FM airwaves in Haiti. Until they get the situation under control, a moratorium remains on issuing new licenses. You can read about the FM RF dilemma in Haiti in the September 2017 issue of the WTFDA's VHF-UHF Digest.

On September 26, 2017, they issued this bulletin to all licensed AM, FM, and TV stations (translated from French)...

Circular Note | September 26, 2017

Subject: Request for dissemination of civic spots and literacy.

The Executive Management of the Executive Body of the National Council of Telecommunications (CONATEL) presents its compliments to the sound and television broadcasting stations under its supervision and takes the opportunity to ask them to proceed to the broadcasting of an audio spot less than two (2) minutes relating to the hacking of frequencies of the FM band allocated to sound broadcasting and the consequences of this harmful practice on air safety, particularly onaeronautical communications. This, with reference to Articles 55 and 56 of the Decree of 12 October 1977 dealing with the matter.

You would therefore like to receive as attachments to the scanned version the file of the said spot in MP3 format.

The Executive Board of the Executive Body of the National Telecommunications Council (CONATEL) avails itself of this opportunity to renew to radio and television stations the assurance of its highest consideration.
