Detailed TV/LPTV Interference Study

The Detailed Interference Study performs the most thorough analysis of a proposed LPTV or TV translator transmitter facility available. The report features a proposed HAAT/ERP table, a station by station interference (generated and recieved) analysis, as well as a summary listing showing radiation (ERP) limits for each degree of azimuth around the study site. Download Program Sample

This study utilizes the interference prediction criteria specified in Sections 74.705 and 74.707 of the FCC Rules. The analysis applies specific radial HAAT figures from the USGS DMA 3-second topographic database. Where available, TV directional antenna patterns (horizontal plane) are applied as well. The report features a proposed HAAT/ERP table, a station-by-station interference (generated and received) analysis, as well as a summary listing showing radiation (ERP) limits for each degree of azimuth around the study site.

To run this study, customers must provide the following information:
Job title
Metric or English
Translators (include or exclude)
TV zone (from Section 73.609 of the FCC Rules)
Safety zone (distance beyond the required separations)
Safety dB
Channel (s)
Coordinates
c/r AMSL (height of antenna radiation center above mean sea level)
ERP
Directional antenna (make, model, orientation)

Price: $475.00 per channel, Detailed Interference study plot $75.00
