17. Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other non-core educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. §73.671, NOTES 2 and 3.
W38CU was silent during the entire 4th quarter of 2008, so no children's programming was aired on Channel 38. However, we operate companion digital channel station W47DN-D (WKTB as of 04/06/2009), which carries the entire schedule that was on W38CU, so all of our children's programming listed in this report was broadcast on Channel 47 rather than Channel 38. We are preparing a displacement application that will result in Class A status being moved to Channel 47. After grant of that application, our Children's Television Reports will be filed under the Channel 47 call sign.

WILLFUL FALSE STATEMENTS MADE ON THIS FORM ARE PUNISHABLE BY FINE AND/OR IMPRISONMENT (U.S. CODE, TITLE 18, SECTION 1001), AND/OR REVOCATION OF ANY STATION LICENSE OR CONSTRUCTION PERMIT (U.S. CODE, TITLE 47, SECTION 312(a)(1)), AND/OR FORFEITURE (U.S. CODE, TITLE 47, SECTION 503).

I certify that the statements in this application are true, complete, and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief, and are made in good faith.
