*Are satellite stations or repeaters of a hub station required to
registerand file in ETRS**? *Analog and digital broadcast stations that
operate as
satellites or repeaters of a hub station (or common studio or control point
if there is no hub station) and rebroadcast 100 percent of the programming
of the hub station (or common studio or control point) are
NOT required to register and file in ETRS. However, the hub station (or
common studio or control point) is required to register and file in ETRS.
