The Commission requests comments on a petition filed by the Ridgefield Broadcasting Corporation seeking the reallotment of Channel 250A from Jewett to Windham, NY, as the community's first local aural service, and the modification of Station WAXK's construction permit to specify Windham as its community of license. Channel 250A can be allotted to Windham in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 3.6 kilometers (2.3 miles) northwest, at coordinates 42-20-12 North Latitude and 74-16-19 West Longitude, to accommodate petitioner's desired transmitter site. Canadian concurrence in the allotment at Windham is required since the community is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border.
