  • the application form is not sufficient to create the substantive requirement that NPTC claims. Second, although NPTC accuses Salsgiver of ``gloss[ing] over'' the issue of how it could be a cable television system within the meaning of Part 76 of the Commission's rules without a fully constructed headend, NPTC offers no legal argument to suggest that Salsgiver cannot be. Rule 76.5 defines a cable system as ``a facility consisting of a set of closed transmission paths and associated signal generation, reception, and control equipment that is designed to provide cable service.'' Thus, rule 76.5 expressly contemplates that a network can qualify as a cable television system, even if it is still in the design phase and not yet fully operational, if

  • television to the public, except cable and other pay television services. Included in this industry are commercial, religious, educational, and other television stations. Also included are establishments primarily engaged in television broadcasting and which produce taped television program materials. There were 1,509 television stations operating in the nation in 1992, of which 1,155 produced less than $10.0 million in revenue (76.5 percent). As of May 31, 1998, official Commission records indicate that 1,579 full power television stations, 2,089 low power television stations, and 4,924 television translator stations were licensed. Using the percentage of television broadcasting licensees that were small entities in 1992 (76.5 percent), we conclude that there are approximately 1,208 full power television stations that are small entities.

Unlike broadcast stations, which are potentially subject to Section 315 requirements with respect to all programming broadcast by a station, cable systems are subject to Section 315 only to the extent they ``originate'' programming. Origination programming is defined in Section 76.5(p) of the Commission's Rules as cablecast material under the ``exclusive editorial control of the cable operator.'' 47 C.F.R. � 76.5(p). The Commission has not considered whether cable network programming such as the programming produced by AETN could, under any circumstances, be deemed cablecast origination material and will not address this issue here. 860 F.2d 465, 470 (D.C.

  • Order erred in concluding that KBAK-TV was not widely viewed in Tulare County, where the communities are located, in comparison to the communities' in-market ABC affiliate. KBAK-TV asserts that the issue is whether a significant number of persons in the subject communities watch its programming, not whether a larger number of persons watch a competing affiliate. KBAK-TV states that Section 76.5(i) of the Commission's rules establishes that if a network station achieves shares of 3 percent of total viewing hours and 25 percent net weekly circulation it is deemed to be significantly viewed. KBAK-TV argues that with shares of 4 percent of total viewing hours and 34 percent net weekly circulation in Tulare County, it is clearly significantly viewed. KBAK-TV states

Also included are establishments primarily engaged in television broadcasting and which produce taped television program materials. There were 1,509 television stations operating in the nation in 1992, of which 1,155 produced less than $10.0 million in revenue (76.5 percent). As of May 31, 1998, official Commission records indicate that 1,579 full power television stations, 2,089 low power television stations, and 4,924 television translator stations were licensed. Using the percentage of television broadcasting licensees that were small entities in 1992 (76.5 percent), we conclude that there are approximately 1,208 full power television stations that are small entities.

  • in the cable context as a general model, we have developed a two step approach in defining substantial duplication in this context. First, a noncommercial television station substantially duplicates the programming of another noncommercial station if it simultaneously broadcasts the same programming as another noncommercial station for more than for more than 50 percent of prime time, as defined by �76.5(n), and more than 50 percent outside of prime time over a three month period. After three noncommercial television stations are carried, the test of duplication shall be whether more than 50 percent of prime time programming and more than 50 percent outside of prime time programming is duplicative on a non-simultaneous basis.

  • statutory provision defines a ``local commercial television station'' as excluding ``low power stations.'' Consequently, TCI-I's removal of station WSPY-LP did not violate Section 614(b)(9). We also do not believe that TCI-I violated the Commission's notification requirements when it dropped WSPY-LP. Under Section 76.58(a) of the rules, television broadcast stations are entitled to notice before being dropped. However, according to Section 76.5(b) of the rules, LPTV stations are not generally considered to be ``television broadcast stations.'' The only matter to be resolved, therefore, is whether TCI-I's actions violated Section 76.964(a) of our rules. We do not believe so. Section 76.964(a), unlike Section 76.58(a), does not require that a cable operator provide any notice to a low power station prior to deleting its

We find that the burden on a cable operator to carry such stations is de minimis, with regard to new digital-only stations, and is essentially a trade-off in the case of a station substituting its digital signal in the place of its analog signal.

Statements by the Acting Mayor of Point Hope and the technician for the cable system admit the cable system does cross public rights-of-way and is carrying signals other/more than local television broadcast stations2 as are the definitions under Section 76.5(a)(1) and (2)3 of the Rules and therefore requires the cable system be registered with the Commission. A search of Commission records shows that the cable system in Point Hope, Alaska is not registered and therefore the violation: 47 C.F.R. 76.1801(a): ``A system community unit shall be authorized to commence operation only after filing with the Commission the information required on

Second, although NPTC accuses Salsgiver of "gloss[ing] over" the issue of how it could be a cable television system within the meaning of Part 76 of the Commission's rules without a fully constructed headend, NPTC offers no legal argument to suggest that Salsgiver cannot be. Rule 76.5 defines a cable system as "a facility consisting of a set of closed transmission paths and associated signal generation, reception, and control equipment that is designed to provide cable service." Thus, rule 76.5 expressly contemplates that a network can qualify as a cable television system, even if it is still in the design phase and not yet fully operational, if
