REPORT AND ORDER
(Proceeding Terminated)
Adopted:  March 15, 2011 Released:  March 16, 2011
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 Connecticut Public Broadcasting, Inc. (“CPBI”), the licensee of 
noncommercial educational station WEDY, New Haven, Connecticut, requesting the substitution of channel 
*41 for channel *6 at New Haven.  In support of its channel substitution request, CPBI states that its 
channel *6 facility is subject to substantial levels of new interference from post-transition power increases 
authorized for stations WPVI-TV, channel 6, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and WRGB, channel 6, 
Schenectady, New York, and that substitution of channel *41 will resolve any interference being 
experienced by viewers.2
2. CPBI filed comments in support.   WHDH-TV, the licensee of WLVI-TV, channel 41, 
Cambridge, Massachusetts, filed comments opposing the channel substitution, alleging that CPBI’s proposal 
is predicted to cause interference to a minor change application filed for WLVI-TV.  CPBI subsequently 
filed supplemental comments proposing to reduce the power for its channel *41 proposal, and WHDH-TV 
filed comments withdrawing its objection to the substitution of channel *41 for channel *6.
3. We believe the public interest would be served by substituting channel *41 for channel *6. 
Channel *41 can be substituted for channel *6 at New Haven, as proposed, in compliance with the principal 
community coverage requirements of Section 73.625(a) of the Commission’s rules,3 at coordinates 41-19-42 
N. and 72-54-25 W.  This channel change further meets the technical requirements set forth in Sections 
73.616 and 73.623 of the Commission’s rules with the following specifications:
City and State DTV Channel DTV Power (kW)  Antenna HAAT(m)  DTV Service Pop. (thous.)
