# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## I. Abstract 

The purpose of the Low-Power Television and Translator Digital-to-Analog Conversion Program is to assist each eligible low-power television station to receive compensation toward the cost of the purchase of a digital-to-analog conversion device that enables it to convert the incoming digital signal of its corresponding full-power television station to analog format for transmission on the low-power television station's analog channel. 

“The term ‘low-power television station’ means a low-power television broadcast station, Class A television station, television translator station, or television booster station—

(1) that is itself broadcasting exclusively in analog format; and 

(2) that has not purchased a digital-to-analog conversion device prior to the date of enactment of the Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005” (See Section 3008 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Pub. L. 109-171, 120 Stat. 4, 25 (2006)). 

This information collection requests information necessary to determine the identity and the number of potentially eligible and priority applicant stations, and the type of equipment required. The information collection also requests optional information about the number of potentially eligible and priority applicant stations, and the type of equipment required which NTIA will use to design the Low-Power Television and Translator Upgrade Program, which is a follow-on program to the Low-Power Television and Translator Digital-to-Analog Conversion Program and is directed at the same applicant pool. 

## II. Method of Collection 

The method of collection will be electronic by the Internet.
