FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73

[MM Docket No. 96-80; RM-8758 and RM-8833]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Alva, Bartlesville and Ponca City, 
OK, and Deerfield, MI

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Action in this document is taken in response to a proposal 
filed by Dale Hendrix requesting the allotment of Channel 261C3 at 
Deerfield, Missouri. See 61 FR 18540, April 26, 1996. The proposal for 
Deerfield is being dismissed for lack of interest. Action taken in 
response to a counterproposal filed by KYFM Radio, Inc., substitutes 
Channel 261C1 for Channel 261A at Bartlesville, Oklahoma, and modifies 
the license for Station KYFM(FM) to specify the higher class channel. 
The coordinates for Channel 261C1 are 36-53-55 and 96-12-00. To 
accommodate the substitution at Bartlesville, we shall also substitute 
Channel 284A for Channel 261A at Ponca City, Oklahoma, and modify the 
license for Station KIXR(FM) accordingly and substitute Channel 278C1 
for vacant Channel 284C1 at Alva, Oklahoma. The coordinates for Channel 
284A at Ponca City are 36-47-19 and 97-02-53. The coordinates for 
Channel 278C1 at Alva are 36-34-55 and 98-52-13. There is a site 
restriction 30.4 kilometers (18.9 miles) southwest of Alva. With this 
action, this proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective February 3, 1997. The window period for filing 
applications for Channel 278C1 at Alva, Oklahoma, will open on February 
3, 1997, and close on March 6, 1997.
