§ 74.798   Digital television transition notices by broadcasters.

   (a) Each low power television, TV translator and Class A television station
   licensee or permittee must air an educational campaign about the transition
   from analog broadcasting to digital television (DTV).

   (b) Stations that have already terminated analog service and begun operating
   in digital prior to effective date of this rule shall not be subject to this
   requirement.

   (c) Stations with the technical ability to locally-originate programming
   must air viewer notifications at a time when the highest number of viewers
   is  watching.  Stations  have  the  discretion as to the form of these
   notifications.

   (d)  Stations  that  lack  the  technical ability to locally-originate
   programming, or find that airing of viewer notifications would pose some
   sort of a hardship, may notify their viewers by some other reasonable means,
   e.g. publication of a notification in a local newspaper. Stations have
   discretion as to the format and time-frame of such local notification.
