W38CU is a low-power class A TV station on channel 38 in metro Atlanta. Owned by Korean American TV Broadcasting , it actually broadcasts Spanish-language Telemundo. The station was originally on Sweat Mountain, licensed to Roswell, Georgia on channel 67, and assigned W67CI from 1990 until changing in 2000. The change came as the FCC has forced all LPTV stations to move out of channels 52 to 69, as all broadcasters are being forced to digital TV, and the upper channels sold off for other purposes. Programming prior to the change was mostly in Korean.

W38CU currently shares channel 38 with a modified construction permit (CP) for another class A LPTV station, WDAH-CA . That station is currently licensed to channel 55, and has applied to change its CP from channel 38 to 45, along with a major upgrade in power. While W38CU is listed with only 4.62 kW of ERPIn radio telecommunications, effective radiated power or ERP is determined by subtracting system losses from system gains. ERP is typically applied to antenna systems. For example, if an antenna system has +9dB gain and −6dB loss, its ERP is +3dB ov, it may upgrade later once WDAH-CA has been approved on 45. W38CU uses a somewhat directional antennaA directional antenna is an antenna which transmits or receives maximum power in a particular direction. All practical antennas are at least somewhat directional, although usually only the direction in the plane parallel to the earth is considered, and pr with a cardioidIn geometry, the cardioid is an epicycloid which has one and only one cusp. That is, a cardioid is a curve that can be produced as a locus — by tracing the path of a chosen point of a circle which rolls without slipping around another circle which is fixe (heart-shaped) pattern, positioned just south of Norcross, GeorgiaNorcross is a city located in Gwinnett County, Georgia. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 8,410. History Norcross was founded in 1870 by John Thrasher. Thrasher named the town after his good friend Jonathan Norcross, the second may, and with the slight nullNull is usually that which has no value (nothingness). It originates from the Latin word nullus meaning not any. Computers In computer programming, null is a special value for a pointer (or other kind of reference) used to signify that the pointer's targe to the northeast. It does not appear to reach as far southwest as Atlanta, its city of licenseIn the United States (and potentially elswhere), each radio station or TV station is assigned a city of license by the Federal Communications Commission that they must "serve". While this has become far less meaningful over the decades, stations are still. A CP issued for the station will reduce coverage to the north and east even further.
