    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has made changes to the Table of FM Allotments, which lists available FM radio channels. They have removed certain channels that were previously vacant and auctioned through a competitive bidding process, as these are now authorized licensed stations. These changes are seen as simple updates, so no further public comments are needed. The amendments will be reflected in the FCC's Licensing Management System.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC is updating their list of radio channels to show which ones are now being used, so they took off some that have been given to radio stations. This update is just a change in the list and doesn’t need any more talking about it.

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has received a request from Gray Television Licensee, LLC, the licensee of KNOE-TV in Monroe, Louisiana, to change the station's channel assignment in the official TV allotment table. Gray wants to keep using channel 8 instead of switching to channel 24 because it's unable to finish building the new channel 24 facilities. The FCC will accept public comments on this proposal until April 3, 2025, and will consider this change to ensure that the station continues to serve its local audience.

    Simple Explanation

    Gray Television wants to keep using channel 8 for KNOE-TV in Monroe, Louisiana, instead of moving to a new channel because they're having trouble setting up the new one. They asked the FCC for permission, and people can give their opinions on this change before early April 2025.
