CBS Broadcasting Inc.
WBBM-TV Chicago, Illinois
Facility ID 9617

CBS Broadcasting Inc. (Paramount), licensee of WBBM-TV Chicago, IL (Facility ID 9617),

respectfully requests authorization to commence ATSC 3.0 operations. As explained below, this
proposal complies with §73.3801(f)(5) and is therefore eligible for expedited processing.

Apart from using the ATSC 3.0 standard, no change is proposed for host station
WBBM-TV’s technical parameters, detailed below. Thus, this proposal is eligible for streamlined
processing pursuant to §73.3801(f)(3). Paramount intends to simulcast the primary WBBM-TV
program stream in ATSC 1.0 on WGN-TV Chicago, IL (Facility ID 72115).1 The multicast program
streams will be broadcast in ATSC 1.0 on other Chicago DMA stations detailed in the Host
Exhibit.

The map provided as Figure 1 shows the locations of the WBBM-TV and WGN-TV
noise-limited service contours (NLSC). As shown, 99.0% of the population within the WBBM-TV
NLSC will continue to receive ATSC 1.0 service from WGN-TV, easily meeting the 95% coverage
requirement of §73.3801(f)(6)(ii). The same map provides the principal community coverage
contour of WGN-TV, demonstrating community of license coverage of WBBM-TV’s primary
stream over Chicago IL, as required by §§73.3801(c) and 73.625. Both stations are within the

CBS Broadcasting Inc. (Licensee), licensee of WBBM-TV Chicago, IL (Facility ID 9617),

respectfully requests authorization to commence ATSC 3.0 operations. To minimize loss of over-
the-air programming available to viewers that might result from WBBM-TV’s transition to the
ATSC 3.0 standard, Licensee has entered into hosting agreements with the licensees of the
stations listed below to broadcast WBBM-TV’s present primary and multicast channels in
ATSC 1.0 format. Licensee is seeking hosting only for streams it was broadcasting on its own 1.0
facility prior to its transition to 3.0.

The contour in Figure 2 provides contours for the WMAQ-TV Construction Permit facility. Construction of this
facility is anticipated in early 2024 according to the WMAQ-TV Fifth Reimbursement Invoice Submission Extension
Request (See Legal STA LMS File 0000219460). Regardless, the licensed WMAQ-TV auxiliary antenna NLSC contour
shown in Figure 5 overlaps 96.2% of the WBBM-TV NLSC, which also meets the 95% requirement of FCC Rule
§73.3801(f)(6)(ii).

(Figure 4) (the “ATSC 1.0 Host Stations”). As shown, 97.9% or more of the population within the
present WBBM-TV NLSC will also be within the NLSCs of the ATSC 1.0 Host Stations, meeting the
95% requirement of FCC Rule §73.3801(f)(6)(ii).

To alleviate any potential viewer confusion associated with the relocation of the
WBBM-TV channels, Licensee will air notices to over-the-air viewers of WBBM-TV that it intends
to discontinue ATSC 1.0 operations and begin broadcasting in the Next Gen TV standard on
WBBM-TV beginning February 5, 2024, and instruct all over-the-air viewers to re-scan and tune
to Channel 2 (the PSIP “virtual” channel for WBBM-TV) in order to continue receiving the
programming of the WBBM-TV primary and multicast channels in the ATSC 1.0 standard.

While Licensee has provided the requisite notice to MVPDs about the relocation of the
WBBM-TV primary ATSC 1.0 stream, no coordination with MVPDs concerning the relocation of
the WBBM-TV Multicast Channels is necessary because no MVPDs currently carry these
channels. If any of the streams become carried by any MVPDs Licensee agrees to coordinate
with impacted MVPDs, as necessary, to ensure that they receive a good quality signal of the
multicast streams over-the-air or via alternative delivery methods.

The contour in Figure 3 provides contours for the WFLD(TV) Construction Permit facility. Construction of this
facility is expected in early 2024 according to the WFLD Fifth Reimbursement Invoice Submission Extension Request
(See Legal STA LMS File 0000219566). Regardless, the temporary WFLD antenna NLSC contour shown in Figure 6
overlaps 98.6% of the WBBM-TV NLSC, which also meets the 95% requirement of FCC Rule §73.3801(f)(6)(ii).
