• KPAZ-TV 21.x (20) Phoenix (Trinity Broadcasting of Arizona Inc.) has requested an Engineering STA to allow it to operate at 500 kW ERP instead of the 1000 kW ERP specified in its license. The station experienced equipment failure, preventing it from operating at full power.
• KASW 61.x (27) Phoenix (Scripps Broadcasting Holdings LLC) has filed a request for a Legal STA, declaring its intention to only carry its primary stream on the NextGen broadcst. The secondary streams continue to be carried in ATSC 1.0 format on KSAZ-TV. In return, KASW carries KSAZ's primary stream in NextGen format.

Expired, Expiring, Canceled and Dismissed

• HC2 Station Group Inc. has declined to build out digital facilities for KDFQ-LP and has instead surrendered the station license to the FCC.
• A new low power television station proposed by KM Communications Inc. to operate on RF channel 7 serving Yuma, has been dismissed due to objection by the Mexical government. The station that would receive interference is said to operate on RF channel 7 in Mexicali BCN, but that is not entirely true. The station in question actually is analog low-power station K07ZF, licensed to Calexico CA, but owned by the Mexican company, Broadcast Group, Ltd. KM's proposed station would have broadcast from the same tower as KESE-LP 35, at County 13th St South and South Avenue 4-1/4 East, and should have been extremely unlikely to cause impermissible interference from K07ZF.
• A new low power television station proposed by Landover 2 LLC to operate on RF channel 28 serving Blythe CA, has been dismissed due to causing impermissible interference to K29EC Blythe CA. Landover failed to amend its application within the required time period to resolve the application.
