FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[MM Docket No. 98-154; RM-9174; RM-9394]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Kosciusko and Decatur, MS

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: In response to a proposal filed on behalf of Rainey 
Broadcasting, Inc., the Commission reallots Channel 277C3 from 
Kosciusko to Decatur, Mississippi (RM-9394), in lieu of previously 
proposed Goodman, Mississippi (RM-9174), as that community's first 
local aural transmission service, and modifies the construction permit 
for Station WZKR (FM) to specify Decatur as its community of license. 
See 63 FR 46978, September 3, 1998. Coordinates used for Channel 277C3 
at Decatur, Mississippi, are 32-23-42 NL and 89-05-42 WL.
    Additionally, this document dismisses as moot a petition for 
reconsideration of an earlier staff letter ruling returning Rainey 
Broadcasting, Inc.'s request for rule making seeking the reallotment of 
Channel 277C3 from Kosciusko to Goodman, Mississippi. With this action, 
the proceeding is terminated.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 1, 1999.
