SUMMARY: This document grants a petition filed by Forum Communications, 
Inc., licensee of FM Station WZUU, proposing the substitution of 
Channel 223A for Channel 222A at Allegan, reallotment of Channel 223A 
from Allegan to Mattawan, Michigan, as its first local service and 
modification of the FM Station WZUU license accordingly. To prevent 
removal of Allegan's sole local service, the document grants the 
reallotment of co-owned Station WQXC-FM, Channel 265A from Otsego to 
Allegan, Michigan and modification of the Station WQXC-FM license 
accordingly. A staff engineering analysis has determined that Channel 
223A can be allotted to Mattawan in conformity with the Commission's 
rules, provided there is a site restriction of 10.6 kilometers (6.6 
miles) southeast at reference coordinates 42-07-45 NL and 85-43-13 WL. 
Additionally, Channel 265A can be allotted to Allegan in compliance 
with the Commission's rules, at the Station WQXC(FM) existing 
transmitter site at coordinates 42-30-31 NL and 85-46-08 WL. The 
reallotments are located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-
