📺FCC Final Rule on Television Broadcasting in Jacksonville, Oregon
In this document, the Federal Communications Commission's Media Bureau substitutes channel * 24 for channel * 4 at Jacksonville, Oregon in the Table of TV Allotments (table) in response to a Petition for Rulemaking filed by theDove Media, Inc. (TDM or Petitioner), the permittee of a new NCE television station to serve Jacksonville, Oregon (Jacksonville), with Facility ID No. 791569 (Station). The staff engineering analysis finds that the proposal is in compliance with the Commission's principal community coverage and technical requirements. The substitution of channel * 24 for channel * 4 in the table will allow TDM to construct its new facility on a UHF channel and avoid the known viewer reception issues on its currently authorized VHF channel.

This document amends the Table of FM Allotments, of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules, by reinstating certain channels as a vacant FM allotment in various communities. The FM allotments were previously removed from the FM Table because a construction permit and/or license was granted. These FM allotments are now considered vacant because of the cancellation of the associated FM authorizations or the dismissal of long-form auction FM applications. A staff engineering analysis confirms that all of the vacant FM allotments complies with the minimum distance separation requirements and principle community coverage requirements of the Commission's rules. The window period for filing applications for these vacant FM allotments will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening these allotments for filing will be addressed by the Commission in subsequent order.
