    Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:90 FR 10044
    Reading Time:about 8 minutes

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considering a proposal from TV-49, Inc. to move a television station's community of license from Silver City to Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. This change would provide the first local TV service to Truth or Consequences and serve over 10,000 people who currently lack full power over-the-air television service. Although the population of Truth or Consequences is smaller than Silver City, the FCC believes the proposal deserves attention because it won't deprive Silver City of existing service and the new location has strong community elements. Comments on this proposal are due by March 24, 2025.

    The FCC is thinking about letting a TV station move its service from Silver City to a place called Truth or Consequences in New Mexico to help people there get TV access because they don't have it right now. They're asking people to tell them what they think about this idea by March.
