FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[DA 05-2200; MB Docket No. 02-109; RM-10420, 10546]
Radio Broadcasting Services; Morgan, GA
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Audio Division, at the request of Donald F. White and
Jerry E. White d/b/a Morgan Radio Company, allots Channel 228A at
Morgan, Georgia, as the community's first local aural transmission
service (RM-10420). See 67 FR 39933, June 11, 2002. We also dismiss the
counterproposal filed by Clyde Scott, Jr. d/b/a EME Communications,
proposing the allotment of Channel 228C3 in lieu of Channel 228A at
Morgan, Georgia (RM-10546). The allotment of Channel 228C3 at Morgan
was not considered because EME Communications failed to express an
interest in applying for the channel, if allotted. Channel 228A can be
allotted to Morgan in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance
separation requirements at city reference coordinates. The coordinates
for Channel 228A are 31-32-15 North Latitude and 84-35-58 West
Longitude.
DATES: Effective September 12, 2005. A filing window for Channel 228A
at Morgan, Georgia, will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue
of opening this allotment for auction will be addressed by the
commission a subsequent order.
