The Federal Communications Commission has revealed the dates for the first-ever filing window for noncommercial educational band FM translator stations. The window will open at 12:01 a.m. on Tue., Aug. 11 and close two weeks later at 6 p.m. on Tue., Aug. 25,. according to a public notice the Audio Division released Wednesday. Anticipating high demand, the FCC encourages applicants to file early, and given the finite nature of the spectrum, the commission said it cannot authorize a translator station for every qualified applicant during this window. “Applicants are encouraged to retain a broadcast engineering consultant to the technical acceptability of their application,” the commission said. During the window, the Media Bureau will only accept translator applications for channels in the NCE FM band between 88.1 and 91.9 FM. We’ve got more details that all applicants should keep in mind below. How to file Applications must be filed electronically via FCC Form 2100, Schedule 349, in the licensing and management system, or LMS. Schedule 349 will be available for data entry in LMS beginning July 1, allowing applicants to begin preparing their submissions early. But the Media Bureau will not accept applications before the window opens. There is no filing fee required. Filed applications will not be made available to the public until after the window closes, according to the bureau. Applicants are also reminded to carefully review channel and antenna location coordinates to ensure all data is specified without typographical errors. Bureau staff will not review attachments or information specified elsewhere in the application to resolve discrepancies. Restrictions Radio World previously reported the following eligibility restrictions for the upcoming window, but here’s a quick refresher: Ownership: Each applicant must be the licensee or permittee of the existing NCE FM, NCE AM or LPFM station that the proposed translator will rebroadcast. Application limits: There is a 10-application limit for each applicant entity nationally, excluding LPFMs. For Tribal LPFMs, the limit is four applications nationally; for other LPFMs, the limit is two. Rebroadcast means: NCE FM translators can rebroadcast its intended signal versus alternative delivery means, such as satellite and microwave facilities. However, that does not apply for LPFM translator applicants. Those applications must comply with the service’s direct off-air input rule. Additionally, the commission said it will not waive its LPFM contour overlap restrictions, nor the restriction that the transmitting antenna of the FM translator for an LPFM is located… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - Colombian military neutralizes five terrorists accused in bus bombing that kille...
Colombian military forces announced on Wednesday they successfully neutralized five members of the militant group responsible for a devastating bus bombing that killed 20 civilians and left 45 others injured.In a statement from the Military Forces of Colombia, officials said the neutralized suspects were members of the "Estructura Jaime Martínez," an organized armed group.In addition to planting the explosives in the municipality of Cajibío, authorities claim the group's criminal activities included stealing vehicles along the Pan-American Highway and indiscriminately deploying drones loaded with explosives.SCHOOL BUS DRIVER CHARGED WITH HOLDING GIRL CAPTIVE FOR 12 YEARSA video shared along with the statement appeared to show body bags laid out in front of a military helicopter and numerous seized weapons.The military retaliation followed an April 26 terror attack, when an explosive device detonated on a passenger bus traveling along the Pan-American Highway in the volatile Cauca region.

[TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - What Color Is the Reflecting Pool? An Investigation.
Workers on the National Mall, desperate to turn the Reflecting Pool to President Trump’s preferred shade of blue, poured jug after jug of hydrogen peroxide into the water yesterday morning. As they did so, members of the National Guard, deployed to clean up crime, looked on. The water, at that moment, matched their mossy-green fatigues.The Reflecting Pool now evokes the joy of a Green Bay Packers victory. Or a high-school prank. Or St. Patrick’s Day in Chicago. It most certainly is not the gleaming American-flag blue that Trump’s repainting of the pool was supposed to produce. That project—the one that cost taxpayers at least $16.4 million and came with a nanobubbling system that promised to kill off algae growth—is hidden under 18 to 30 inches of swamp water dense with scraggly plumes of algae.“Yeah, it’s gross!” said one woman passing by.“Quite green,” remarked another.A woman visiting from Fort Worth, Texas, told me she just hopes it’s fixed in time for America’s 250th birthday, on July 4: “We came and expected it to be blue, and we’re like, What is all this green junk in there?”It’s a question that has ignited internet memes and conspiracy theories, posing the latest political Rorschach test to a divided nation. A not insignificant number of federal workers have now been mobilized to fight the green junk and answer questions about whether the green junk is under control. After the morning doses of hydrogen peroxide came the midday deployment of half a dozen National Park Service workers in bright-yellow vests, many with long-poled contraptions that they swept through the water. “Is that … a vacuum?” a passing man wondered aloud. Yes, he was told. It is a vacuum.By evening, the situation had escalated: Workers strapped on waders, grabbed handfuls of tubing, and got in the pool. Generators hummed; water pumped; workers scraped. By dusk, some areas—though by no means all—had transformed to a hopeful shade of teal. Aerial views, as some noted, made it look like a painting by the abstract artist Mark Rothko.So it’s come to this: A nation launched on the Founding Fathers’ grand dreams about democracy—one that survived a civil war and foreign attacks, that endured depressions and recessions and assassinations—is celebrating its semiquincentennial by watching to see whether we can clean the water in a century-old concrete pool.
