Abstract: FCC Form 2100, Schedule C is used by licensees/permittees/applicants when applying for authority to construct or make changes in a Low Power Television, TV Translator or DTV Transition. On January 19, 2021, the Commission released Rules Governing the Use of Distributed Transmission System Technologies, MB Docket No. 20-74, Report and Order, FCC 21-21. The Commission adopted rules to allow low power television and television translator stations (collectively “low power stations”) to seek authority to construct Distributed Transmission System (DTS) operations. Pursuant to new section 74.720 of the rules, low power stations may now propose DTS operations by filing an application for construction permit for minor modification – FCC Form 2100, Schedule C. This submission is also being made to OMB for approval of the modified FCC Form 2100, Schedule C.
