SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Eagle Communications, Inc., 
licensee of station KTVM(TV), substitutes DTV channel 33 for DTV

coordinates (46-00-27 N. and 112-26-30 W.) with a power of 1000, HAAT 
of 576 meters and with a DTV service population of 122 thousand. Since

concurrence by the Canadian government has been obtained for this 
allotment.
    With this action, this proceeding is terminated.
