FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73

[MM Docket No. 93-165; RM-8247]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Athens, OH

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; petition for reconsideration.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission, pursuant to delegated authority, denies a 
Petition for Reconsideration filed by David W. Ringer (``Ringer'') of 
the action taken by the Acting Chief, Allocations Branch in MM Docket 
No. 93-165, establishing a filing window for the filing of applications 
for authorization to operate on Channel 240A in Athens, Ohio. See 59 
F.R. 4008 (January 28, 1994). It also dismisses a Motion for Stay filed 
by Ringer. The Commission dismisses the reconsideration petition 
because the petitioner had actual knowledge that an original filing 
window for Athens had been suspended in an unpublished Public Notice. 
It rejects the contention that the wording of that Public Notice was so 
unclear as to have deprived petitioner of such notice. Accordingly, the 
Public Notice was effective in suspending the original filing window 
and the subsequent filing window for Athens, Ohio, established in a 
later Order, was valid.

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 18, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Roger Holberg, Mass Media Bureau, 
Policy and Rules Division, Legal Branch, (202) 776-1653.
