The Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC or Commission) Incentive Auction Task Force has released an updated version of the information package put together to assist broadcasters in their analysis of Incentive Auction opportunities. The updated information includes the high and median opening bid prices in each television market for full power and Class A stations eligible for Incentive Auction participation. The updated package also includes additional detail on channel sharing and the UHF-to-VHF bidding options, a description of the bidding hierarchy and the bid selection process proposed by the Commission in the Incentive Auction Comment Public Notice, and an overview of how the repacking process will work for stations that do not participate or whose bids are not selected.
