FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 00-371; MM Docket No. 99-245; RM-9680]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Johnson City and Owego, NY

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of WEBO Radio, Inc., reallots 
Channel 269A from Owego to Johnson City, NY, as the community's first 
local aural service, and modifies the license of Station WLTB to 
specify Johnson City as its community of license. See 64 FR 37924, July 
14, 1999. Channel 269A can be allotted to Johnson City in compliance 
with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a 
site restriction of 6.4 kilometers (4.0 miles) south, at coordinates 
42-03-44 North Latitude and 75-56-37 West Longitude, to avoid a short-
spacing to Station WXHC, Channel 268A, Homer, NY, and to accommodate 
petitioner's desired transmitter site. Canadian concurrence in the 
allotment has been obtained since Johnson City is located within 320 
kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border.

DATES: Effective April 10, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Leslie K. Shapiro, Mass Media Bureau, 
(202) 418-2180.
