FM: Spacing Study
The FM Spacing study is designed to test a
proposed commercial FM transmitter site with the spacing criteria
specified in Section 73.207 of the FCC Rules.
The program then searches the database
and retrieves all records pertinent to the study. Details of how this
study is run is described in Report Details below.View

Report Details
For each channel studied the program
retrieves all records pertinent to the study. These consist of all
geographically close records on the same channel (co-channel), 1,
2 or 3 channels removed (1st, 2nd and 3rd adjacent) and 53 or 54
channels removed (Intermediate Frequency). Records are retained which
fall within the diatances specified in the commercial spacing table from
the FCC Rules with the addition of the safety zone. If no records are
found within this distance for a given channel, the nearest record for
that channel is retrieved.
The records are then sorted by channel,
and within each channel, by distance to the user-supplied site. The facility record entry on the report
is accompanied by a required separation distance, if pertinent.
For the Spacing mode, this value
is selected from the appropriate separation table from the FCC Rules.
Distinct tables are used for domestic (US), Canadian and Mexican
facility records. Also, one table is used for US and Canadian I.F.
relationships, and a second one for Mexican I.F. problems.
