    PUBLIC NOTICE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION 1919 M STREET N.W. WASHINGTON, D.C. 20554 451 News media information 202/632·5050. Recorded fisting of releases .,d .xts 202/632-0002. November 3, 1989 Increased Power for Selected FM Class A Licensees and Permittees Re: MM Docket No. 88-375 The rules adopted in the Second Report and Order in MM Docket 88-375, 54 Fed. Reg. 35335 (August 25, 1989), increased the maximum effective radiated power (ERP) for commercial Class A FM stations to 6 kilowatts and revised the table of minimum distance separations involving Class A stations (Table A, Section 73.207) accordingly. The Second Report and Order provided for the publication of a list of Class A---stations that appear to meet all the newly adopted minimum distance separation requirements from their authorized sites. The Attachment to this Public Notice contains that list, entitled, "Fully Spaced Class A Stations." Because of the Commission's desire to allow as many Class A stations as possible to operate with increased power without unnecessary delay or expense and to lessen the administrative burden on the Commission, the Attachemnt to this Public Notice also contains a separate list, entitled, "Newly Grandfathered Class A Stations," of selected stations that became short-spaced on October 2, 1989 as a result of the new minimum distance separation requirements, and thus fall under the new grandfather provisions of Section 73.213(c). The stations on this list have antenna heights above average terrain (HAAT) less than 100 meters and thus may also increase ERP on or after December 1, 1989, provided that the predicted distance to their F(50,10) 34 dB above one micovolt per meter field strength contour does not exceed 98 kilometers (the equivalent of a 3kW!100m Class A station) .

(licensee of Station WMRN-FM, Marion, Ohio and Clear Channel Broadcasting Licenses, Inc., licensee of Station WSRW-FM, Hillsboro, Ohio Cjointly “Clear Channel”), by their counsel, hereby reply to the Opposition to Supplement filed on August 11, 2005, by the Committee for Competitive Columbus Radio (the “Committee”). The Committee incorrectly states that Clear Channel has “enlarged” the Columbus market in order to qualify for a fifth FM station in that market. In support hereof, Clear Channel states as follows: 1. On August 2,2005, Clear Channel filed a Supplement in this proceeding to report that it had filed a Form 314 application for Commission approval to assign the license of Station WQIO(FM), Mt. Vernon, Ohio, to another party. 1/ In addition, Clear Channel reported that it had filed a Form 301 application for Station WMRN-FM to implement the Report and Order in this proceeding to serve Dublin, Ohio. z/ By virtue of these two applications, Clear Channel will comply with Section 73.3555 of the Commission’s Rules by owning the limit of five FM stations in a 45 station market. ~ -I/ FCC File No. BALH-20050726ACU. -21 FCC File No. BPH-20050726ALM. 454972-1.DOC 1 2. Nevertheless, the Committee argues that the number of stations in the Columbus market has been manipulated by Clear Channel to make the total number of stations reach 45.
