Majac of Michigan, Inc., ("Majac"), licensee of Station WKGB-FM, Channel 223A, Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, and Equinox Broadcasting Corporation ("Equinox"), licensee ofStation WCDW(FM), Channel 263A, Conklin, New York, hereby jointly comment in support ofproposals made in the Commission's Notice ofProposedRulemaking in this proceeding, DA 99-149 (released September 10, 1999) ("Notice"), published at 64 FR 51284 (Sep. 22, 1999). Statement 2. Majac and Equinox jointly filed a Petition for Rule Making ("Petition") on October 14, 1998, requesting that the communities of license, but not the frequencies, of WKGB-FM and WCDW(FM) be exchanged. WKGB-FM would continue to operate on Channel 223A, but the license would be modified to specify operation at Conklin, rather than Susqueheanna; and WCDW(FM) would continue to operate on Channel 263A, but the license would be modified to specify operation at Susquehanna, instead of Conklin. Equinox indicated it did not propose to relocate the transmitter for WCDW(FM), but because it currently operates on a short-spaced basis, No. of CQpies. rec'd--.Dd. UstABCDE it did set forth a theoretical site that showed the reallotment satisfied the Commission's technical spacing requirements. Majac did propose a minormodification ofWKGB-FM'stransmittersite, and it provided an engineering showing that such a modification would fully comply with the Commission's technical regulations. l 3. On September 10, 1999, the Commission released its Notice, proposing to amend theFM Table ofAllotments as follows: Community Present Proposed Susquehanna, PA 223A 263A Conklin, NY 263A 223A In connection with this reallotment, the Commission also proposed to modify the licenses of WKBG-FM and WCDW(FM) accordingly. The Commission noted that because the proposal was an exchange ofallotments, local service would be maintained at both Susquehanna and Conklin, and no community would be deprived ofa local transmission service. Further, the FCC recognized that the exchange would allow WKGB-FM to expand its service area, while any areas that would lose service as a result of the proposed WKGB-FM transmitter relocation would continue to receive service from at least five other radio stations. Response to Commission Requests 4. In the Notice, the Commission requested that Equinox provide a gain/loss study for the alternate fully-spaced site for Channel 263A at Susquehanna. This study is attached hereto as Exhibit A. It shows that WCDW(FM) would provide city-grade coverage (3.16 mV/m) over Susquehanna, Pennsylvania from the fully-spaced site. The 60 dBu contour ofWCDW(FM) would increase from covering 2,498.3 square kilometers to 2,516.1 square kilometers. 2,216 persons would 1 A study ofgain and loss areas was also submitted by Majac. - 2 - gain service, and while 10,189 would lose service, most persons in the loss area would continue to receive well in excess of five or more other primary radio services. See Exhibit A. Therefore, operation from the theoretical transmitter site would be wholly consistent with Commission precedent. 2 5. The Commission also requested that Majac and Equinox submit a copy ofthe agreement whereby Majac has agreed to compensate Equinox for its participation in this proceeding and for accepting a modification ofthe WCDW(FM) license. A copy ofthis agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit B. 3 Declaration ofIntent 6. If the proposal set forth in the Notice is adopted, Majac intends to promptly file the appropriate application for Channel 223A at Conklin, New York, and ifauthorized, will promptly construct the WKGB-FM facilities contemplated therein. In addition, Equinox intends to promptly file the appropriate application to modify its license to specify operation on Channel 263A at Susquehanna, Pennsylvania.4 2 See, e.g., Arcadia and Fort Meade, Florida, 13 FCC Rcd 1989 (Alloc. Br. 1998) (granting the reallotment ofa station even though loss areas were created, as the loss areas would continue to be well-served by five or more reception services.) 3 Although Equinox and Majac believe that the agreement is not relevant to their reallotment request, they are submitting it so that their reallotment request may be granted in an expeditious fashion. They submit that the amount to be paid by Majac to Equinox constitutes "commercial or financial infonnation" under Section 0.457(d) of the Rules and thus should not be disclosed to competitors in the marketplace. Accordingly, that figure has been redacted. 4 Majac will file its application on Fonn 301, because it proposes facilities changes. It is submitted that Equinox should be able to file its application directly on Fonn 302-FM, because the only change will be its community oflicense. - 3 - ---._-- _--------------------- Conclusion For the foregoing reasons, Majac and Equinox hereby respectfully request that the Commission re-allot Channel 263A from Conklin, New York to Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, and modify the license ofradio station WCDW(FM) accordingly, and to re-allot Channel 223A from Susquehanna, Pennsylvania to Conklin, New York, and to modify the license ofradio station WKGB-FM accordingly (with the reference coordinates previously specified).

Inc, li- censee of Radio Station WKGB-FM - Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, and proponent of MM Docket 99-278, which proposes a swap of communities of license between WKGB- FM and WCDW(FM) - Conklin, New York. Specifically, the above referenced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ("NPRM") in this proceeding proposes to reallot Channel 223A from Susquehanna, Pennsylvania to Conkin New York for use by WKGB-FM and to reallot Channel 263A from Conklin, New York to Susquehanna, Pennsylvania for use by WCDW. This engineering statement supports comments in this proceeding and supplies additional information requested in the NPRM . Although it is not actually proposed to relocate the WCDW transmitter site, it was necessary to specify reference coordinates for Channel 263A in Susquehanna which differ from those of the presently licensed WCDW transmitter site, due to the fact that the present WCDW operating facilities were authorized from a short spaced site under the FCC's contour protection rules.

  • FM Stations Affected by the 2017 TV Band Repacking Plan
    July 6, 2017 Marlene H. Dortch Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Notice of Ex Parte Communication, GN Docket No. 12-268, MB Docket No. 16-306. Dear Ms. Dortch: In an effort to help its radio members better understand and prepare for the impacts of the post-auction transition of repacked television stations, NAB commissioned a study to determine which FM stations are likely to need to coordinate with TV stations making adjustments following the Incentive Auction. This analysis identifies 678 FM stations that may need to reduce power, shut down, or operate from an auxiliary facility as work is being done on a neighboring TV station antenna to ensure tower worker safety from radio frequency exposure. A copy of this analysis is attached. We look forward to working with the Commission to ensure the smoothest possible transition for broadcast viewers and listeners.
