Radio Broadcasting Services; Mason, Menard and Fredericksburg, TX.

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: At the request of BK Radio, Jayson and Janice Fritz, Foxcom, Inc., and Kent S. Foster, this document allots Channel 239C2, Channel 273C2, and Channel 289C2 to Mason, Texas. BK Radio may amend its pending application for Channel 281C2 at Mason, Texas, to specify operation on Channel 239C2 without loss of cut-off protection. Jayson and Janice Fritz may amend their pending application for Channel 281C2 at Mason, Texas, to specify operation on Channel 289C2 without loss of cut-off protection. Foxcom, Inc. may amend its pending application for Channel 281C2 at Mason, Texas, to specify operation on Channel 273C2 without loss of cut-off protection. This document also allots Channel 265C2 to Menard, Texas. See 64 FR 33237, published June 22, 1999. The reference coordinates for the Channel 265C2 allotment at Menard, Texas, are 30-44-00and 99-44-00. The reference coordinates for the Channel 239C2 allotment at Mason, Texas, are 30-33-24 and 99-25-34. The reference coordinates for the Channel 289C2 allotment at Mason, Texas, are 30-31-40 and 99-07-51. The reference coordinates for the Channel 273C2 allotment at Mason, Texas, are 30-38-21 and 99-20-36. The reference coordinates for the Channel 281C2 allotment at Mason, Texas, are now 30-44-55 and 99-13-49. The counterproposal filedby Munbilla Broadcasting to allot Channel 249C2 to Fredricksburg, Texas will not be considered in this proceeding because it required each applicant to amend their respective application to specify operation on Channel 273C2 at Mason. This proposal would not comply with the separation requirements set forth in Section 73.207(b) of the Rules.

DATES: Effective September 5, 2000.
