Radio Broadcasting Services; Cloverdale, Montgomery, and Warrior, AL

AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Final rule; application for review.

SUMMARY:

This document denies an application for review filed by William P. Rogers that appeals the Memorandum Opinion and Order, 62 FR 9375 (March 3, 1997), in this proceeding insofar as it refused to accept Rogers' counterproposal to allot Channel 254A to Florence, Alabama. Rogers' counterproposal was rejected primarily because it did not provide 100 percent city-grade coverage of Florence, as required by Section 73.315(a) of the Commission's Rules. This document does not deal with Pulaski Broadcasting, Inc.'s proposal to allot FM Channel 254A to Cloverdale, Alabama, which was rejected in a previous order. Nor does this document consider a joint counterproposal filed by former licensees of Stations WBHK(FM), Warrior, Alabama, and Station WBAM-FM, Montgomery, Alabama, which was granted by a previous order.
