For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

Henderson 1110 West William Cannon Drive Suite 402 Austin, TX 78745 In re: AM Broadcast Auction No. 84 Roy E. Henderson KNUZ(AM), Bellville, Texas Facility ID No. 48653 File No. BMJP-20050118ADC Application for Major Modification to AM Broadcast Station Dear Mr. Henderson: This letter refers to the above-noted application filed by Roy E. Henderson (“Henderson”) for major modification to the facilities of station KNUZ(AM), Bellville, Texas, seeking to change the community of license from Bellville to Katy, Texas. For the reasons set forth below, we dismiss the application. Background. Henderson timely filed his FCC Form 175 application to change the KNUZ(AM) community of license during the filing window for AM Auction No. 84 (“Auction 84”).1 Because the application was determined not to be mutually exclusive with any other proposal filed in the Auction 84 filing window, Henderson was invited to file his complete FCC Form 301 application by January 18, 2005.2 Henderson timely filed his complete FCC Form 301 application on January 18, 2005. Henderson proposes a change in community of license as well as a change to the KNUZ(AM) technical facilities. In connection with the community change, Henderson was instructed to submit an amendment addressing the implications of the proposed community change under Section 307(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, which directs the Commission to make a “fair, efficient, and equitable” distribution of radio service among communities in the United States.3 Henderson timely filed his Section 307(b) amendment on July 15, 2005.

  • The Transom Review Volume 12/Issue 3 Phyllis Fletcher & Robert
    The Transom Review Volume 12/Issue 3 Phyllis Fletcher & Robert Smith July 2012 (Edited by Sydney Lewis) Phyllis Fletcher and Robert Smith. Photo by Serene Careaga, KUOW. The Transom Review – Vol.12/ Issue 3 Intro from Jay Allison Radio used to be ephemera. Now everything lasts forever. Except, perhaps, spot news. Who goes back to listen to the daily top of the hour? Phyllis Fletcher and Robert Smith do! Their Transom Manifesto breaks down the lowly news spot, which, they point out, can make you famous. It is probably more listened-to than any other moment on the air, and in its fleeting brevity, there is power. Robert (NPR) and Phyllis (KUOW) show you all the miniature moving parts in a fascinating and delicate dissection of these journalistic sonnets. Their Transom Manifesto is sure to be thumbtacked onto local and national newsroom bulletin boards for years to come. They also give you audio examples from Susan Stamberg, David Green, Mike Pesca, Zoe Chace, GregWarner, Chana Joffe-Walt, and lots of other Masters of the Minute. Creativity in a Minute Nobody gets a Peabody award for a piece under a minute. Reporters don’t dream of writing 45 seconds of copy. NPR doesn’t even archive its news spots on its website.
