A city of license or community of license, in American and Canadian broadcasting, is the community that a radio station or television station is officially licensed to serve by that country's broadcast regulator. The United States of America —commonly referred to as the Country to "Dominion of Canada" or "Canadian Federation" or anything else please read the Talk Page This article is about radio broadcasting for other uses see Radio (disambiguation. A television station is a type of broadcast station that broadcasts both audio and Video to Television receivers in a particular area

While becoming less meaningful over the decades, stations are still required to post a public file somewhere within 25 miles of the city, and to cover the entire city with a signal. A public file (or public inspection file) is a collection of Documents required by a Broadcasting authority to be maintained by all broadcast In Telecommunication, signalling (UK spelling or signaling (US spelling has the following meanings The use of signals for controlling communications In the United States, a station's transmitter usually cannot be located more than 15 miles from the city of license, even if it primarily serves another city. For biologic transmitters see Transmitter substance. A transmitter is an electronic device which usually with the aid of an antenna For example, American television station WTTV primarily serves Indianapolis, Indiana; however, the transmitter is located farther south than the other stations in that city because it is licensed to Bloomington, 50 miles south of Indianapolis. WTTV, channel 4 is a television station licensed to Bloomington Indiana, serving as the CW Television Network affiliate for the Indianapolis Indiana Bloomington is a city and the County seat of Monroe County in the south central region of the U In some cases, such as Jeannette, Pennsylvania-licensed WPCW-TV 19, the FCC has waived this requirement. Jeannette is a City in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States. WPCW-TV is a CW Television Network Owned and operated station that serves the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania DMA. Channel 19 refers to several Television stations WPCW claimed potential interference to co-channel Shaker Heights-licensed WOIO 19 as a successful pretext to justify this exemption. Co-channel interference or CCI is Crosstalk from two different Radio transmitters using the same Frequency. Shaker Heights is a City in the US state of Ohio. As of the 2000 Census, the city population was 29405 and was the tenth-largest city in Channel 19 refers to several Television stations
FCC regulations also require stations at least once an hour to state the station's call letters, followed by the city of license. However, the FCC has no restrictions on additional names after the city of license, so many stations afterwards add the nearest large city. For example, American television station WOIO is licensed to Shaker Heights, a suburb of Cleveland. Cleveland is a City in the US state of Ohio and the County seat of Cuyahoga County, the most populous county in the state It is identified as "WOIO - WOIO DT Shaker Heights-Cleveland. Digital television (DTV is the sending and receiving of moving images and sound by discrete ( digital) signals in contrast to the analog signals used by " Similarly, northern New York's WWNY identifies as WWNY-TV 7 Carthage-Watertown as a historical artefact; the original broadcasts originated from Champion Hill in 1954 so the license still reflects this tiny location. New York ( is a state in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions of the United States and is the nation's third most populous WWNY-TV, channel 7 is a CBS -affiliated Television station in Watertown New York, although it is actually licensed to nearby Carthage. Carthage is a Village located in the Town of Wilna in Jefferson County New York. Watertown (town New York Watertown is a city in the State of New York and the County seat of Jefferson County Champion is a Town in Jefferson County, New York, USA. The population was 4361 at the 2000 census Year 1954 ( MCMLIV) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full 1954 Gregorian calendar)
If the station is licensed in the primary city served, on occasion the station will list a second city next to it. For example, American television station WTVT, licensed to Tampa, Florida, its primary city, identifies as "WTVT/WTVT-DT Tampa/St. Petersburg," as St. WTVT, channel 13 is a television station in Tampa Florida. It is an Owned and operated station of the Fox Broadcasting Company, a subsdiary of the St Petersburg (often shortened to St Pete) is a city in Pinellas County Florida, United States. Petersburg is another major city in the market.
There is no longer a requirement to carry programs relevant to the particular community, or even necessarily to operate or transmit from that community. Program Management is the process of managing multiple ongoing inter-dependent Projects An example would be that of designing manufacturing and providing support Accordingly, stations licensed to smaller communities in major metropolitan markets often target programming toward the entire market rather than the official home community, and often move their studio facilities to the larger urban centre as well. A metropolitan area is a large population center consisting of a large Metropolis and its adjacent zone of influence or of more than one closely adjoining neighboring central For instance, the Canadian radio station CFNY is officially licensed to Brampton, Ontario, although its studio and transmitter facilities are located in downtown Toronto. CFNY-FM is a Canadian Radio station, broadcasting at 1021 FM. Brampton (pronounced bramton is the third-largest city in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada and the seat of Peel Region. Toronto (təˈrɒntoʊ colloquially pronounced or) is the largest city in Canada and is the provincial capital of Ontario
This may, at times, lead to confusion — while media directories normally list broadcast stations by their legal community of license, audiences often disregard (or may even be entirely unaware of) the distinction.
In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission maintains a Table of Allotments, which assigns individual channel frequencies to individual cities or communities for both TV and radio. The United States of America —commonly referred to as the Television ( TV) is a widely used Telecommunication medium for sending ( Broadcasting) and receiving moving Images, either monochromatic Radio is the transmission of signals by Modulation of electromagnetic waves with frequencies below those of visible Light. [1]
A corresponding Table of Allotments for digital television was created in 1997. Digital television (DTV is the sending and receiving of moving images and sound by discrete ( digital) signals in contrast to the analog signals used by Year 1997 ( MCMXCVII) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link will display full 1997 Gregorian calendar [2]. To operate a licensed station, a broadcaster must first obtain allocation of the desired frequencies in the FCC's Table of Allotments for the intended city of license. This process is subject to various political and bureaucratic restrictions, based on considerations including the number of existing stations in the area.
The term "city" has in some cases been relaxed to mean community, often including the unincorporated areas around the city that share a mailing address. A city is an Urban area with a large Population and a particular Administrative, Legal, or Historical status In biological terms a community is a group of interacting Organisms sharing an environment. Mail, or post, is a method for transmitting information and tangible objects wherein written Documents typically enclosed in Envelopes and also An address is a Code and abstract concept expressing the fixed location of a home business or other building on the earth's surface This sometimes leads to inconsistencies, such as the licensing of one metro Atlanta station to the unincorporated Cobb County community of Mableton, but the refusal to license another to Sandy Springs, which is one of the largest cities in the state, and was at the time an unincorporated part of Fulton County only due to political reasons in the Georgia General Assembly. The verb license or grant license means to give permission The noun license is the document demonstrating that permission Cobb County is a County located in the US state of Georgia. Its County seat and largest city is Marietta, located in the center Mableton is a Census-designated place in Cobb County, Georgia, United States. Sandy Springs is a newly incorporated city incorporated in December 2005 Fulton County is a County located in the US state of Georgia. Politics Politics is the process by which groups of people make decisions The Georgia General Assembly is the state legislature of the U The FCC's reason, in part, was that Sandy Springs was "not a city", though Mableton is not either.
Often, the city of license does not correspond to the location of the station itself, of the primary audience or of the communities identified in the station's branding and advertising. Some of these include:
