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 (other than ex parte presentations exempt under 47 CFR

which involve channel allotments. See 47 CFR 1.1208 for rules governing 
restricted proceedings.
