    \ Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 WIG 1 9 199~ In Reply Refer to 1800B3-DEBIKDY Edwin N. Lavergne, Esquire Ginsburg, Feldman and Bress 1250 Connecticut Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20036 Re: WPLY(FM), Media, Pennsylvania Application for Construction Permit and Related Short-Spacing Waiver Requests (File No. BPH-940513IB) Dear Mr. Lavergne: We have on file the above-captioned application for construction permit filed by Greater Media Radio Company, Inc. ("Greater Media"), licensee of station WPLY(FM), Media, Pennsylvania. The application is unopposed. Because the application conflicts with certain Commission spacing rules, Greater Media requests waivers of those rules. As set forth below, we find that Greater Media fails to demonstrate that grant of the requested waivers would be in the public interest. I. BACKGROUND Station WPLY(FM)l is licensed to serve Media, Pennsylvania, a community located approximately 12.5 Ian outside the Philadelphia city limits. Greater Media proposes . relocating the WPLY(FM) transmitter 17.2 Ian from its present site, to a multi-use antenna farm within the Philadelphia city limits ("Roxborough Sit~"). Greater Media contends that the instant application would create three short-spacings violative of the Commission's spacing rules? Greater Media thus requests the following: I Station WPLY(FM) is a Class B station operating with 35 kw ERP and 183 meters HAAT. 2 The Commission's spacing rules, contained in Sections 73.207, 73.213 and 73.215 are discussed, infra. 2 (1) waiver of 47 C.F.R. § 73.213(a) to allow WPLY(FM) to reduce the spacing between that station and co-channel station WHTZ(FM), Newark, New Jersey by 16.9 km;3 (2) waiver of 47 C.F.R.

I started out in this business as a controller so it was an opportunity when I started to be a controller of a growing broad- cast company, Inner City Broadcasting in New York City. To be affiliated with a media company that you listen to on the radio was a great opportunity at that point for me. JM: Now you started at the same company you’re at but you were off to several other places along the way, what brought you back to the place of origination in a much higher position? CW: When I left Inner City Broadcasting back in 1989 I guess it was I really felt at that point that I had been in the company for 12 years and I felt there was a lot more that I needed to learn about broadcasting and had an opportunity to move to a number of other companies over an 11 year period which certainly broadened my understanding of all different aspects of our industry.
