  • requirement for driving directions to monitoring points, and for maps showing the monitoring points. III. AM Station Equipment & Measurements A. Base Current Ammeters 26. Background. Licensees are currently required to install base current ammeters or toroidal transformers (current registering devices) at the power feed point of each tower, typically at the base of the tower. See 47 C.F.R. § 73.58(b). With improvements in antenna sampling system design, fewer stations now rely on base current ammeters as a means of maintaining proper array adjustment. We therefore proposed to delete the requirement for base current ammeters or toroidal transformers for those directional stations employing approved antenna sampling systems. 27. Discussion. Nearly all commenters agree that the requirement for base current sampling should

Licensees are currently required to install base current ammeters or toroidal transformers (current registering devices) at the power feed point of each tower, typically at the base of the tower. See 47 C.F.R. § 73.58(b). The ratio of the individual tower currents is an important parameter in the proper operation of a direction array. However, over the years antenna monitor and antenna sampling system design improvements have lessened stations' reliance on base current ammeters as a means of maintaining proper array adjustment. Some commenters have questioned the reliability of base ammeters. They are susceptible to

  • requirement for driving directions to monitoring points, and for maps showing the monitoring points. III. AM Station Equipment & Measurements A. Base Current Ammeters 26. Background. Licensees are currently required to install base current ammeters or toroidal transformers (current registering devices) at the power feed point of each tower, typically at the base of the tower. See 47 C.F.R. § 73.58(b). With improvements in antenna sampling system design, fewer stations now rely on base current ammeters as a means of maintaining proper array adjustment. We therefore proposed to delete the requirement for base current ammeters or toroidal transformers for those directional stations employing approved antenna sampling systems. 27. Discussion. Nearly all commenters agree that the requirement for base current sampling should

The monitoring assignment of each broadcast station and cable system and wireless cable system are specified in the State EAS Plan and FCC Mapbook." At the time of inspection, station KHLT was not monitoring station KRNX, one of the required EAS sources. b. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.58(a): "Each AM station must be equipped with indicating instruments which conform with the specifications described in S:73.1215 for determining power by the direct and the indirect methods, and with other such instruments as are necessary for the proper adjustment, operation, and maintenance of the transmitting system." At the time of inspection, the common point current meter and remote transmission system

See 47 C.F.R. 73.51 and 73.58. 12 In PJB Communications of Virginia, Inc. (7 FCC Rcd 2088, 2088 (1992)), the Commission did not downwardly adjust a forfeiture based on wireless carrier's claims that its rule violation [failure to file required notifications to maintain authorized operation of one-way paging facilities] did not adversely affect the public.
