-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Media Bureau, at the request of Woman's World
Broadcasting, Inc., deletes vacant Channel 296A at Lynchburg,
Tennessee, from the FM Table of Allotments, and allots Channel 230A at
Lynchburg, Tennessee, as a vacant channel in the FM Table of
Allotments. The purpose of this channel substitution is to accommodate
a change of community for FM Station WTSH, which is moving from
Rockmart to Aragon, Georgia. The reference coordinates for Channel 230A
at Lynchburg, Tennessee, are 35-21-58 NL and 86-17-18 WL, at a site
12.1 km (7.5 miles) northeast of Lynchburg. The Media Bureau also
dismisses a counterproposal filed by Bart Walker to allot Channel 230A
to Wartrace, Tennessee, as a first local aural service. See
Supplementary Information.

The Commission will send a copy of this Report and
Order in a report to be sent to Congress and the Government
Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5
U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
Every FM channel change set forth in the Report and Order formerly
required rule changes to Section 73.202(b), the FM Table of Allotments.
See 70 FR 66329 (November 2, 2005). As a result of changes to the
Commission's processing rules, modifications of FM channels for
existing stations are no longer listed in Section 73.202(b) and are
instead reflected in the Media Bureau's Consolidated Data Base System
(CDBS). See Revision of Procedures Governing Amendments to FM Table of
Allotments and Changes of Community of License in the Radio Broadcast
Services, Report and Order, 21 FCC Rcd 14212 (December 20, 2006). Only
the substitution of Channel 230A for vacant Channel 296A at Lynchburg,
Tennessee, which involves an amendment to Section 73.202(b), is
summarized and published in the Federal Register. Although the Report
and Order, as revised, sets forth an effective date of October 8, 2007,
the amendment to the FM Table of Allotments and the specified FM
license modifications will be effective 30 days after publication of
this summary in the Federal Register in compliance with Sections 1.427
and 1.429 of the Commission's rules.
