REPORT AND ORDER
(Proceeding Terminated)
Adopted: May 28, 2009 Released:  May 29, 2009
By the Chief, Video Division, Media Bureau:
1. The Commission has before it a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking1 issued in response to a 
petition for rulemaking filed by Trinity Christian Center of Santa Ana, Inc. d/b/a Trinity Broadcasting 
Network (“Trinity”), the licensee of station WDLI-DT, DTV channel 39, Canton, Ohio.  Trinity has 
requested the substitution of DTV channel 49 for its assigned post-transition DTV channel 39 at Canton.  
Trinity filed comments.  No other comments were received
2. We believe the public interest would be served by substituting DTV channel 49 for post-
transition DTV channel 39.  The channel substitution will permit the station to reach a larger DTV service 
area than is possible at its current allotment.
3. DTV channel 49 can be substituted for DTV channel 39 at Canton, Ohio, as proposed, in 
compliance with the principal community coverage requirements of Section 73.625(a) of the Commission’s 
rules, at coordinates 41-03-20 N. and 81-35-38 W.  Since the proposed facility is located within the 
Canadian coordination zone, concurrence from the Canadian government has been obtained for this 
allotment.  In addition, we find that this channel change meets the technical requirements set forth in 
Sections 73.616, 73.622(f)(5) and 73.623 of the Commission’s rules with the following specifications: 2
City and State DTV Channel DTV Power Antenna HAAT DTV Service Pop.
(kW) (meters) (thous.)
Canton, Ohio 49 900 292 4084
4. We also conclude that good cause exists to make this channel change effective immediately 
upon publication in the Federal Register, pursuant to Section 553(d)(3) of the Administrative Procedures 
Act.3 An expedited effective date is necessary in this case to ensure that station WDLI-DT can provide 
improved service to the market as quickly as possible.
