first local aural broadcast service. The proposed coordinates for 
Channel 244A at Stamford, Connecticut, are 41-02-49 NL and 73-31-36 WL. 
The allotment will require a site restriction of 12.8 km (7.9 miles)

comments on or before February 27, 2007.

    The Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not 
apply to this proceeding. Members of the public should note that from 
the time a Notice of Proposed Rule Making is issued until the matter is 
no longer subject to Commission consideration or court review, all ex 
parte contacts are prohibited in Commission proceedings, such as this 
one, which involve channel allotments. See 47 CFR 1.1204(b) for rules 
governing permissible ex parte contacts.
