Radio Broadcasting Services; Old Forge and Newport Village, NY

الملخص

The Commission requests comments on a petition filed by 21st Century Radio Ventures, Inc., seeking the reallotment of Channel 259A from Old Forge, NY, to Newport Village, NY, and the modification of its outstanding construction permit (BPH-940203MC) to specify Newport Village as the station's community of license. The reallotment could provide Newport Village with its first local aural service. Channel 259A can be allotted to Newport Village in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) northwest, at coordinates 43- 15-43 North Latitude and 75-05-02 West Longitude, to avoid a short- spacing to Station WTKW, Channel 258A, Bridgeport, NY, and Station WRVE, Channel 258B, Schenectady, NY. Newport Village is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border. Therefore, the Commission must obtain the concurrence of the Canadian government in the proposal.
