WNYZ-LP Deleted?

Yes, unless the owners of WNYZ can show cause why it should be reinstated.

Of course, they can always file another application for digital facilities.
 
To copy and paste an e-mail to a mailing list on the same subject:

I'm willing to bet it's a mistake. Here's why.

In the Correspondence Folder, I found the letter regarding the deletion of the license.

http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/getimportletter_exh.cgi?import_letter_id=26580

It basically says their flash cut was dismissed since the extension request was filed after the expiration of the permit. What I suspect happened is one of two things.

- The FCC thought it was off the air for more than a year, thus deleting the facility when it was found that the permit had expired unbuilt.
- The FCC thought it was a companion channel, and thus when the permit expired, so did the license.

In either case, unless there's something else going on here that I am unfamiliar with, I foresee it being reinstated.

I guess they came up with a compelling cause. The license has already been restored.

Looking at the link Trip posted, I think he's probably right that it's a mistake. My guess is that the permit to flash-cut to digital expired, but the staff inadvertently marked the underlying analog license as expired.
