[MM Docket No. 95-49; RM-8558]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Llano and Marble Falls, TX

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: The Commission is issuing this Further Notice to solicit 
comments on the proposal to allot Channel 242A at Llano, Texas, as 
requested by Maxagrid Broadcasting Corporation, licensee of Station 
KLKM(FM), Channel 284C3, Llano, Texas. See 60 Fr 22021, May 4, 1995. 
Channel 242A can be allotted to Llano in compliance with the

the licensed site of Station KSJL(FM), Channel 241C1, San Antonio, 
Texas. The coordinates for Channel 242A are 30-49-57 and 98-40-44. 
Since Llano is located within 320 kilometers (199 miles) of the U.S.-
Mexican border, concurrence of the Mexican government has been 
requested.

DATES: Comments must be filed on or before September 23, 1996, and 
reply comments on or before October 8, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC 20554. In 
addition to filing comments with the FCC, interested parties should
