Radio Broadcasting Services; Speculator, NY

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Michael Celenza and Peter 
Hunn, allots Channel 243A to Speculator, NY, as the community's first 
local FM service. See 63 FR 7360, February 13, 1998. Channel 243A can 
be allotted to Speculator in compliance with the Commission's minimum 
distance separation requirements without the imposition of a site 
restriction, at coordinates 43-29-50 North Latitude; 74-21-44 West 
Longitude. Canadian concurrence in the allotment has been received 
since Speculator is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the 
U.S.-Canadian border. With this action, this proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective June 29, 1998. A filing window for Channel 243A at 
Speculator, NY, will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of 
opening a filing window for this channel will be addressed by the 
Commission in a subsequent order.
