[DA 03-630; MM Docket No. 01-111; RM-10124, RM-10341]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Alamo and Milan, Georgia

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: In response to a Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 66 FR 30366 
(June 6, 2001) this Report and Order allots Channel 287C3 to Alamo, 
Georgia, and provides Alamo with its first local aural transmission 
service. This document also denies a mutually exclusive application 
filed by Tel-Dodge Broadcasting Co.(``Tel-Dodge''), licensee of Station 
WMCG(FM), Milan Georgia to change its transmitter site. The Commission 
compared the merits of Radio East Corp's rulemaking petition that 
proposed the allotment of Channel 287C3 to Alamo with those of Tel-
Dodge's application, pursuant to the Commission's Revision of FM 
Assignment Policies and Procedures, 90 FCC 2d 88 (1982). The Commission

preferred the rulemaking petition. The coordinates for Channel 287C3 at 
Alamo are 32-19-29 North Latitude and 82-43-23 West Longitude. This 
allotment has a site restriction of 20.4 kilometers (12.7 miles) north 
of Alamo.

DATES: Effective April 28, 2003.
