FFPD also specifically demonstrated that it complies with the TIS
spacing rule The TIS spacing rule in 47 CFR § 90.242(a)(2)(i) provides that
the transmitting site of the TIS Station must be located at least 15 km (9.3
miles) measured orthogonally outside the measured 0.5 mV/m daytime contour
(0.1 mV/m for Class A stations) of any AM broadcast station operating on a
first adjacent channel and at least 130 km (80.6 miles) outside the measured
0.5 mV/m daytime contour (0.1 mV/m for Class A stations) of any AM broadcast
station operating on the same channel.

in section 90.242(a)(2)(i) of the Commission’s rules. When FFPD
initially applied for its TIS authorization, FFPD demonstrated that its TIS
station is outside the 0.5 mV/m contour of the nearest co-channel station
operating on 1020 kilohertz (KTNQ, Los Angeles, CA) by 305 miles; outside the
0.5 mV/m contour of the nearest first adjacent station operating on 1010
kilohertz (KIQI, San Francisco, CA) by 65 miles; and outside the 0.5 mV/m
contour of the nearest first adjacent station operating on 1030 kHz (KJDJ,
San Luis Obispo, CA) by 195 miles. See File No. 0009254474, Foresthill Fire
Protection District (filed Oct. 12, 2020). We find that this analysis is
still valid today.
