Ranger, TX, at reference coordinates 32-22-55 and 98-45-55; (2)

34-49-13 and 100-14-29. The FM Table of Allotments currently lists 
Channel 253A at Ardmore, Oklahoma. In 1997, the Audio Division granted 
Station KACO(FM) a construction permit to specify operation on Channel 
253C3 in lieu of Channel 253A, BMPH-970307IC, to which a license was 
granted to cover this construction permit in 1998, BPH-19971010KI.
