Ka pataje Chèn dwe pèmèt, ki gen ladan pataje pa plis pase de estasyon. Yon estasyon siviv te kapab pataje ak yon estasyon ki pa ta siviv otreman, oswa de oswa plis estasyon fòse yo chanje chanèl ta ka ranpli yon aplikasyon jwenti yo pataje yon sèl nouvo kanal. Divizyon kapasite kanal la ta kite nan estasyon yo toutotan chak estasyon te gen dwa emèt omwen yon kanal full-time videyo gratis a definisyon plen. Pataje chèn se pa menm bagay la kòm kourtaj yon kouran dijital. Nan yon sitiyasyon kanal pataje, chak nan pati yo pataje yon kanal gen pwòp lisans FCC li yo ak siy rele, chak se responsab nan FCC a pou tout aksyon li yo, e pa youn ki responsab pou aksyon yo nan lòt moun yo. Nan yon aranjman Brokerage tan, yon sèl lame kenbe sèlman lisans lan FCC ak lous responsablite ultim pou tout kontni sou tout sous dlo.

Channel sharing may be permitted, including sharing by more than two stations. A surviving station could share with a station that would not otherwise survive, or two or more stations forced to change channel could file a joint application to share a single new channel. The division of channel capacity would be left to the stations as long as each station had the right to broadcast at least one full-time standard-definition free video channel. Channel sharing is not the same as brokering a digital stream. In a channel sharing situation, each of the parties sharing a channel has its own FCC license and call sign, each is responsible to the FCC for all its actions, and none is responsible for the actions of the others. In a time brokerage arrangement, one host holds the only FCC license and bears ultimate responsibility for all content on all streams.
