Default DTV Delay would cost PBS $22 Million

Quote:
NEW YORK (AP) — Delaying the upcoming digital TV transition for four months would cost public broadcasters $22 million, the PBS system chief estimated on Monday.
The Associated Press: Digital transition delay would cost PBS $22M

I don't get it, will it cost PBS as a whole $22 Million?

And just what is behind the costs?

Quote:
The stations will face increased power charges to maintain over-the-air broadcast signals, she said. Many have leases for signal transmitters that were due to expire on the date of the switch over and will have to make new arrangements, she said.
Seems to be an over exaggeration to me.
