Update: Comment Dates Set for Channel Sharing Proposals

Last month we reported on the Commission's efforts to fine-tune its rules relative to TV channel-sharing in advance of the fast-approaching spectrum auction. Those efforts included (in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) component of the item) a number of proposals as to which the FCC expressly sought comment. The NPRM has now been published in the Federal Register, so we can all get out calendars out and make a note of the comment deadlines. Comments on the new channel-sharing proposals are due by August 13, 2015, and replies are due by August 28. Both comments and replies may be filed through the FCC's ECFS online filing system; refer to Proceeding Nos. 12-268 and 15-137.
