-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document sets forth a proposal to amend the FM Table of

73.202(b). The Commission requests comment on a petition filed by
Cochise Broadcasting LLC, licensee of FM Station KZXK, Doney Park,
Arizona. Petitioner proposes the substitution of FM Channel 293C2 for
vacant Channel 255C2 at Leupp, Arizona. The purpose of the requested
channel substitution at Custer is to allow FM Station KZXK to go from
being a short-spaced station authorized pursuant to Section 73.215 of
the Commission's rules and using a directional antenna to a fully-
spaced station using an omnidirectional antenna. Channel 293C2 can be
allotted at Leupp in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance
separation requirements without site restriction at 35-17-02 North
Latitude and 110-57-52 West Longitude. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
infra.

The Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not
apply to this proceeding. Members of the public should note that from
the 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 are prohibited in Commission proceedings, such as this
one, which involve channel allotments. See 47 CFR 1.1204(b) for rules
governing permissible ex parte contacts.
