FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 99-2698; MM Docket No. 99-23; RM-9423; RM-9767]

 
Radio Broadcasting Services; Tipton, Mangum, Eldorado, Granite, 
OK, Archer City, TX

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Good Government Radio, 
dismisses its request to allot Channel 249C2 to Tipton, OK, substitute 
Channel 282A for Channel 249A at Mangum, OK, and substitute Channel 
245A for Channel 246A at Eldorado, OK. See 64 FR 5623, February 4, 
1999. This action also grants the proposal of Texas Grace 
Communications to substitute Channel 248C1 for Channel 248C2 at Archer 
City, TX, modify its construction permit for Station KRZB to specify 
the higher class channel, and allot Channel 282C3 to Granite, OK, as 
the community's first local aural service. Channel 248C1 can be 
allotted to Archer City in compliance with the Commission's minimum 
distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 21.9 
kilometers (13.6 miles) west, at coordinates 33-36-58 NL; 98-51-42 WL, 
to accommodate Texas Grace's requested site. Channel 282C3 can be 
allotted to Granite with a site restriction of 1.2 kilometers (.76 
miles) east, at coordinates 34-57-38 NL; 99-22-00 WL, to avoid a short-
spacing to Station KQFX, Channel 282C1, Borger, TX. A filing window for 
Channel 282C3 at Granite, OK, will not be opened at this time. Instead, 
the issue of opening a filing window for this channel will be addressed 
by the Commission in a subsequent order.

DATES: Effective January 18, 2000.
