A New Hampshire-based LPTV station has filed the industry’s first application for an experimental 5G Broadcast STA from the FCC, part of an effort to demonstrate the technology’s viability in the U.S.
WWOO-LD, an LPTV owned by Milachi Media, LLC, in Westmoreland, NH, headed up by Bill Christian, filed the application last week. Christian is partnering with Frank Copsidas, founder of the LPTV Broadcasters Association founder and industry veteran Preston Padden to form a new venture called “XGen Network” to focus on the new technology.
