 Being a secondary service, KSPJ-LP was forced to find another frequency or to cease operations.The station applied to move to channel 38 on July 27, 2005 and then applied for an STA to operate on that frequency several days later.The FCC granted both requests, first the STA on August 24, 2005 which cleared the way for the station to move immediately, then the construction permit on October 31, 2005.
