FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 06-1303; MB Docket No. 05-310; RM-11292, RM-11300, RM-11314]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Effingham, and Holton, KS; Humboldt 
and Pawnee City, NE and Valley Falls, KS

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule; dismissal.

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

SUMMARY: This document dismisses: (1) A petition for rule making filed 
by Cumulus Licensing, LLC (``Cumulus'') to substitute Channel 245C2 for 
Channel 244A at Humboldt, Nebraska, reallot Channel 245C2 to Valley 
Falls, Kansas, and allot Channel 256A at Pawnee City, Nebraska; (2) a 
counterproposal filed by Cumulus to substitute Channel 245C2 for 
Channel 244A at Humboldt, reallot Channel 245C2 to Effingham, Kansas, 
allot Channel 272A at Humboldt, and allot Channel 256A at Pawnee City; 
(3) a counterproposal filed by Viking Enterprises to allot Channel 
245C2 at Holton, Kansas which requires the substitution of Channel 272A 
for Channel 244A at Humboldt. Cumulus's initial petition for a change 
of community was technically defective because the proposed allotment 
was not mutually exclusive with the existing allotment as required by 
the Commission's rules. Since the Notice of Proposed Rule Making was 
defective and erroneously issued, the counterproposals must be 
dismissed.

2738.
