A Lincoln radio itttion plans to request i watt Increase
from the Federal Communications Commission, and ex
pects opposition to its request from an Omaha television
StatKZUM, which broadcasts at 89.5 on the FM dial, began
broadcasting in February 1978 as a 10-watt station.
WOWT in Omaha appealed the request of the station to
begin broadcasting last year. . f
Dave Luebbert, president of KZUM's Board of
Directors and a computer analyst at UNL, said he expects
another appeal of the station's request for a watt increase.
Luebbert said KZUM will request an increase from 10
to 3,000 watts in the next two weeks.
Jim Smith, president and general manager of WOWT,
said the station would probably object to an increase in
watts for KZUM.
Luebbert said KZUM requested the increase to allow
the station to be picked up easily throughout Lincoln.
Two mile radius
KZUMs signal extends about a two mile radius from
its transmitter on 19th St. and Cornhusker Highway, and
can be picked up easily on campus, he said.
Luebbert said he expects the appeal from WOWT be
cause Channel 6 is at the low end of the non-commercial
broadcast spectrum.1
WOWT operates at a frequency between 82-88 MHz,
Smith said, which is the frequency all Channel 6 stations
operate. The closeness of these frequencies is the cause of
the interference, he said. ,'
WOWT claims that some non-selective television re
ceivers pick up the KZUM signal and this interferes with
WOWTs video reception .he said.
Luebbert said KZUM hopes to demonstrate to the FCC
that there is actually little effect on WOWT'i broadcasts.
He said there was some video interference on WOWT
broadcasts in a trailer court near the transmitter, but the
installation of filters on television antennas corrected
these problems.
Interference problems
Smith said the area of interference caused by KZUM's
broadcasts lies between Lincoln and Omaha, and that the
FCC issued KZUM's permit to broadcast on the con
dition that they would correct any interference problems
which arose.
"We believe there was an interference problem at 10
watts, so the same problem would exist at 3000 watts,"
Smith said.
Luebbert pointed out that many of WOWTs programs
are carried by KOLNKGIN in Lincoln. He estimated 85
to 90 percent of the two stations programming is the
same.
If the request is upopposed, Luebbert said the station
could receive the Increase in 90 days. If it is opposed the
request may not be settled for up to two years.
Flexible residency, tuition questioned
University officials Monday denied a charge made by
some members of the Legislature's Education Committee
that a bill to allow the NU Board of Regents to set re
quirements for resident tuition is an attempt to keep
enrollment high.
LB304, sponsored by the Education Committee, would
allow university officials to deal with individual requests
for residency status with more flexibility than present law
allows, according to Steven Sample, UNL executive vice
president for academic affairs.
. Anselmo Sen. Howard Lamb, Lincoln Sen. Dave Landis
and Kearney Sen. Martin Kahle expressed concern that
the university may be attempting to prepare itself for a
bidding war over warm bodies.
But Sample said that is not the "primary purpose of
thebill. .

The bill would allow the regents to set different levels
of out-of-state tuition, as well as change residency require
ments. Sample pointed out that the regents have not
approved preferential tuition rates to Pottawattamie
County, Iowa students wishing to attend UNO, although
the subject was discussed.
Landis asked if the university wants "to go after the
warm bodies of Council Bluffs.
Kahle, pointing out that enrollment projections
indicate a decline soon, said he was bothered by the possi
bility of a fight for students.
But Sample said work began on the bill long before
there was a question of attracting students to the univer
sity. '
He said the bill was drafted as a response to calls
senators received from parents complaining that they had
to pay out-of-state tuition. Sample said if a family had
just moved to Nebraska and had two children, one 17 and
one 19, the 19-year-old would be charged out-of-state
tuition, but the 17 -year-old would not.
Or, if a student has lived in Nebraska all his or her life,
and the. family moved away for one year and then moved
back to the state, a 19-year-old would have to pay out-of-state
tuition.
Because state senators were getting calls from such
families, university officials were asked to work on a bill
to solve the problem, Sample said.
"Other states let the governing boards of universities
set residency requirements,' Sample said. He added that
the university perceives other problems with existing
statute that would be cleared up by LB304.
