LPTV.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Media Bureau has announced that beginning on August 20, 2024, Class A television, Low Power Television (LPTV), and TV translator stations will be permitted to file major change applications to change their existing channels.

The announcement ends a longstanding freeze on major modification applications that has been in place since 2010 and provides those stations with a notable opportunity to improve their service and resolve long-standing channel issues.
