Radio Broadcasting Services; Cherry Valley, AR; Cotton Plant, AR

The Commission denies a petition for rule making filed by ALALATEX Broadcasters, proposing the allotment of FM Channel 257A to Cherry Valley, Arkansas (RM-9340). See 63 FR 69609, December 17, 1998. In response to separate counterproposals filed on behalf of Woodruff County Broadcasting (RM-9481) and Bobby Caldwell (RM-9482), the Commission allots Channel 257A to Cotton Plant, Arkansas. Our determination was reached after comparatively evaluating each proposal. That analysis revealed that each community receives at least five full- time aural reception services. Therefore, Cotton Plant was preferred as it is the larger community. Coordinates used for Channel 257A at Cotton Plant are 34-55-32 NL and 91-09-32 WL. With this action, the proceeding is terminated.
