This document allots Channel 266A at Mertzon, Texas, in response to a petition filed by Schleicher County Radio. See 64 FR 73463, December 30, 1999. The coordinates for Channel 266A at Mertzon are 31-15-30 NL and 100-49-00 WL. Although Mexican concurrence has been requested for the allotment of Channel 266A at Mertzon, notification has not been received.
