FCC Approves WLAJ Channel Substitution

The FCC Media Bureau Video Division approved WLAJ-TV Lansing, Michigan's request to substitute Channel 25 for Channel 51, the bureau said in an order Friday in docket 15-2. The substitution will eliminate potential interference with wireless operations in the adjacent lower 700 MHz A-block, which includes the Detroit-Ann Arbor-Flint and Grand Rapids-Muskegon-Holland markets, WLAJ's self-named licensee said. WLAJ must electronically submit a minor change application for a construction permit with Form 2100, Schedule A within 30 days, the bureau said.
