FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[DA 05-2200; MB Docket No. 02-109; RM-10420, 10546]
Radio Broadcasting Services; Morgan, GA
AGENCY:
Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION:
Final rule.
SUMMARY:
The Audio Division, at the request of Donald F. White and Jerry E. White d/b/a Morgan Radio Company, allots Channel 228A at Morgan, Georgia, as the community's first local aural transmission service (RM-10420). See 67 FR 39933, June 11, 2002. We also dismiss the counterproposal filed by Clyde Scott, Jr. d/b/a EME Communications, proposing the allotment of Channel 228C3 in lieu of Channel 228A at Morgan, Georgia (RM-10546). The allotment of Channel 228C3 at Morgan was not considered because EME Communications failed to express an interest in applying for the channel, if allotted. Channel 228A can be allotted to Morgan in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements at city reference coordinates. The coordinates for Channel 228A are 31-32-15 North Latitude and 84-35-58 West Longitude.
DATES:
Effective September 12, 2005. A filing window for Channel 228A at Morgan, Georgia, will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening this allotment for auction will be addressed by the commission a subsequent order.
