AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This document allots Channel 286A at Sister Bay, Wisconsin, in 
response to a petition filed by Michael J. Mesic. See 64 FR 52488, 
September 29, 1999. The coordinates for Channel 286A at Sister Bay are 
45-14-19 and 87-05-17. In response to a counterproposal filed by KMB 
Broadcasting, Inc., we shall substitute Channel 284C for Channel 284C1 
at Escanaba, Michigan, and modify the license for Station WYKX to 
specify operation on Channel 284C.\1\ The coordinates for Channel 284C 
are 46-05-31 and 87-09-50. Canadian concurrence has been received for 
the allotment of Channels 286A at Sister Bay and Channel 284C at 
Escanaba.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Station WYKX, Channel 284, Escanaba, Michigan, was 
downgraded from Class C to Class C1 by cancellation of BPH-870302NI 
as modified by BMPH-911120IE on October 21, 1998. See 52 FR 10757, 
April 3, 1987. However, as the FM Table of Allotments has not been 
amended to reflect the change in class from a C to C1, there is no 
need to amend the Table.

DATES: Effective January 2, 2001
