AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.


ACTION: Final rule.


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


SUMMARY: In response to a petition filed by Charles Crawford requesting 
an allotment at Snyder, Texas, we shall allot Channel 235C3 in lieu of 
Channel 237C3 to the community at coordinates 32-42-25 and 101-05-36. 
See 66 FR 37632, July 19, 2001. In response to a counterproposal filed 
in this proceeding by 21st Century Radio Venture, Inc. and Littlefield 
Broadcasting, LLC, we shall substitute Channel 238C1 for Channel 238C3 
at Littlefield, Texas, reallot Channel 238C1 to Wolfforth, Texas, and 
modify the license for Station KAIQ accordingly. The coordinates for 
Channel 238C1 at Wolfforth are 33-33-00 and 102-05-11. To accommodate 
the allotment at Wolfforth, Station KPER, Hobbs, New Mexico, has 
consented to a site change. The coordinates for the new site are 32-41-
37 and 103-17-24. To further accommodate the Wolfforth allotment, 
Station KAIQ, Floydada, Texas, has filed a one-step application to 
modify its license to specify operation on Channel 291C3 in lieu of 
Channel 237A. The issue of opening the allotment of Channel 235C3 at 
Snyder, Texas, for auction will be addressed by the Commission in a 
subsequent order. With this action, this proceeding is terminated.


DATES: Effective December 23, 2002.
