SUMMARY: In response to a petition filed by Best Broadcasting, Inc.,

substitution of Channel 247C2 for Channel 247C3 at Moberly, Missouri, 
and modification of the license for Station KCSX accordingly, with 
additional substitutions at Malta Bend, MO and Chillicothe, MO. See 65 
FR 45745, July 25, 2000. In response to a counterproposal filed by Best 
Broadcasting, Inc. and First Broadcasting Company, this document 
substitutes Channel 247C1 for Channel 247C3 at Moberly, Missouri, 
reallots Channel 247C1 from Moberly to Lee's Summit, MO and modifies 
the authorization for Station KCSX to specify operation at Lee's Summit 
on Channel 247C1. The coordinates for Channel 247C1 at Lee's Summit are 
39-04-20 and 94-35-45. To accommodate the allotment at Lee's Summit, we

Burlington, Kansas (39-10-08 & 95-39-07), substitute Channel 276C3 for

47-33), substitute Channel 280C3 for Channel 243C3 at Malta Bend, 
Missouri (39-21-59 & 93-24-12), substitute Channel 253A for Channel 
280C3 at Chillicothe, Missouri (39-43-40 & 93-35-43), substitute 
Channel 249C2 for Channel 246C3 at La Monte, Missouri (38-48-23 & 93-
09-08), substitute Channel 246A for Channel 249A at Warsaw, Missouri 
(38-20-41 & 93-23-10), substitute Channel 248A for Channel 249A at

247C3 at Madison, Missouri, as a first local service at coordinates 39-
24-37 and 92-10-58. The issue of opening the allotment at Madison for 
auction will be addressed by the Commission in a subsequent order.

operation on Channel 234C3 in lieu of Channel 288A in a one-step 
application (BPH-19990816IE). We will take this opportunity to 
correct the FM Table of Allotments.
