With respect to co-channel, low power TV station W18BC, Franklin modified its applications on April 27, 2010 because ``[t]he previous filing by the County showed 45 dB protection based on the requirements of Section 74.707(a)(1)(iii)'' and ``Section 90.307 requires 50 dB protection.'' Franklin states that ``Antennas and ERPs have been adjusted to assure 50 dB protection to W18BC.''

For co-channel stations, Section 90.309 Table A requires a 50 dB protection ratio to the service contour of an analog station. Although Lancaster demonstrated only 45 dB protection based on the protection ratio given in Section 74.707(d)(1), there are no cases of contour overlap. Thus, we are persuaded that Lancaster would provide 50 dB protection to co-channel analog LPTV stations and translators. For co-channel digital stations, Lancaster used a protection ratio of 17 dB based on Section 90.545(a)(1). Lancaster demonstrates that potentially affected co-channel digital LPTV/translator stations will receive more than 17 dB protection. As we stated

This approach is also based on D/U ratio compliance at points along the protected signal contour. We propose that applications to modify Class A stations (subsequent to receiving initial Class A licenses) protect existing Class A service in the same manner.
