What Broadcasters Can Expect From Washington in 2010

Very interesting blog by communications attorney David Oxenford on what radio and TV can expect for 2010.

What caught my eye was the prediction that the FCC will set a date for TV translators and LPTV stations to switch to digital. This will mean two things: the end of Franken FMs and possibly open the way for radio to use Ch. 6. According to Oxenford:

"Proposals are already pending to immediately allow LPFM stations on 87.5, 87.7 and 87.9 – all parts of channel 6 that can be heard on most FM radio receivers." He also mentions putting AM stations on these channels.
