47 CFR Part 73

[DA 03-190; MM Docket No. 01-295; RM-10305; RM-10381]

Radio Broadcasting Services; Jayton, TX

AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

This document denies a petition for rule making filed at the request of Linda Crawford, proposing the allotment of FM Channel 231A to Jayton, Texas (RM-10305). See 66 FR 53755, October 24, 2001. In response to a counterproposal filed by Robert Fabian (RM-10381), this document allots Channel 231C2 to Jayton, Texas, as that community's first local aural transmission service. Our determination was premised on Commission policy which is to allot the highest class channel requested to a community that complies with the technical requirements of the Rules. Coordinates used for Channel 231C2 at Jayton, Texas, are 33-15-35 NL and 100-40-08 WL. With this action, this docketed proceeding is terminated.

DATES:

Effective March 24, 2003. A filing window for Channel 231C2 at Jayton, Texas, will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening this allotment for auction will be addressed by the Commission in a subsequent Order.
