This document sets forth a proposal to amend the FM Table of Allotment of the Commission's rules. The Commission requests comment on a petition filed by Piedmont Communications, Inc. and Old Belt Broadcasting Corporation (together, "Joint Petitioners") pursuant to section 1.420(i) of the Commission's rules. Joint Petitioners propose to change the community of allotment and the corresponding channel allotment for Channel 255A at Orange, Virginia, to Channel 255B1 at Midlothian, Virginia, and to modify the license of WJMA-FM accordingly. In order to facilitate those changes, Joint Petitioners further propose to substitute Channel 270A for Channel 255C3 at South Hill, Virginia, and to modify the WKSK-FM license to specify operation on Channel 270A. To accommodate this proposal, Joint Petitioners also request substitution of Channel 271C0 for Channel 271C at Reidsville, North Carolina. Channel 255B1 can be allotted to Midlothian in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 12.7 km (7.9 miles) northwest of Midlothian. The coordinates for Channel 255B1 at Midlothian are 37-35-23 North Latitude and 77-44-49 West Longitude. Channel
