FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 03-190; MM Docket No. 01-295; RM-10305; RM-10381]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Jayton, TX

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This document denies a petition for rule making filed at the 
request of Linda Crawford, proposing the allotment of FM Channel 231A 
to Jayton, Texas (RM-10305). See 66 FR 53755, October 24, 2001. In 
response to a counterproposal filed by Robert Fabian (RM-10381), this 
document allots Channel 231C2 to Jayton, Texas, as that community's 
first local aural transmission service. Our determination was premised 
on Commission policy which is to allot the highest class channel 
requested to a community that complies with the technical requirements 
of the Rules. Coordinates used for Channel 231C2 at Jayton, Texas, are 
33-15-35 NL and 100-40-08 WL. With this action, this docketed 
proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective March 24, 2003. A filing window for Channel 231C2 at 
Jayton, Texas, will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of 
opening this allotment for auction will be addressed by the Commission 
in a subsequent Order.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nancy Joyner, Media Bureau, (202) 418-
2180.
