Radio Broadcasting Services; Wellsville, NY
The Commission requests comments on a petition filed by Erin Communications, Inc., seeking the substitution of Channel 278A for Channel 228A at Wellsville, NY, and the modification of Station WJQZ(FM)'s license accordingly. The substitution of channels could enable Station WJQZ(FM) to operate with full Class A facilities of 6 kW instead of its present 3 kW. Channel 278A can be allotted to Wellsville in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 8.7 kilometers (5.4 miles) southwest, at coordinates 42-13-24 NL; 78-00-34 WL. Canadian concurrence in the allotment is required since Wellsville is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border. The Commission will not accept competing expressions of interest in use of Channel 278A at Wellsville since the procedures set forth in 1.420(g) of the Commission's Rules do not apply in this case as the Commission generally considers channels of the same class to be equivalent.
