FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 06-1303; MB Docket No. 05-310; RM-11292, RM-11300, RM-11314]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Effingham, and Holton, KS; Humboldt
and Pawnee City, NE and Valley Falls, KS

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule; dismissal.

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

SUMMARY: This document dismisses: (1) A petition for rule making filed
by Cumulus Licensing, LLC (``Cumulus'') to substitute Channel 245C2 for
Channel 244A at Humboldt, Nebraska, reallot Channel 245C2 to Valley
Falls, Kansas, and allot Channel 256A at Pawnee City, Nebraska; (2) a
counterproposal filed by Cumulus to substitute Channel 245C2 for
Channel 244A at Humboldt, reallot Channel 245C2 to Effingham, Kansas,
allot Channel 272A at Humboldt, and allot Channel 256A at Pawnee City;
(3) a counterproposal filed by Viking Enterprises to allot Channel
245C2 at Holton, Kansas which requires the substitution of Channel 272A
for Channel 244A at Humboldt. Cumulus's initial petition for a change
of community was technically defective because the proposed allotment
was not mutually exclusive with the existing allotment as required by
the Commission's rules. Since the Notice of Proposed Rule Making was
defective and erroneously issued, the counterproposals must be
dismissed.

2738.
