Dear Licensee:
This refers to your license renewal application for station KABB(TV), San Antonio, TX.
In the Children’s Television Act of 1990, Pub. L. No. 101-437, 104 Stat. 996-1000, codified  at
47 U.S.C. Sections 303a, 303b and 394, Congress directed the Commission to adopt rules, inter 
alia, limiting the number of minutes of commercial matter that television stations may air during 
children’s programming, and to consider in its review of television license renewals the extent to 
which the licensee has complied with such commercial limits.  Pursuant to this statutory 
mandate, the Commission adopted Section 73.670 of the Rules, 47 C.F.R. § 73.670, which limits 
the amount of commercial matter which may be aired during children’s programming to 10.5 
minutes per hour on weekends and 12 minutes per hour on weekdays.  Children’s Television 
Programming, 6 FCC Rcd 2111, 2118, recon. granted in part, 6 FCC Rcd 5093, 5098 (1991).  
The commercial limitations became effective on January 1, 1992.  Children’s Television 
Programming, 6 FCC Rcd 5529, 5530 (1991).
On March 27, 2006, you filed the above-referenced license renewal application for station 
KABB(TV).  In response to Section IV, Question 5 of that application, you certify that, during 
the previous license term, station KABB(TV) failed to comply with the limitations on 
commercial matter in children’s programming specified in Section 73.670 of the Commission’s 
Rules.  In Exhibit 19, you indicate that station KABB(TV) exceeded the children’s television 
commercial limits on three occasions between September 1, 1998, and August 31, 2002.  Of 
those three overages, two were 30 seconds in duration and one was 60 seconds in duration.  You 
attribute the overages to human error and inadvertence and describe steps taken to prevent 
recurrence of these violations. 
2
It appears from the information before us that the overages in question were de minimis  
violations of the children’s television commercial limits.  Such violations of Section 73.670 of 
the Commission’s Rules do not warrant further consideration in connection with KABB(TV)’s 
renewal application.  
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, a copy of this Letter shall be sent by First Class and 
Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, to the licensee at the address listed above, and to its 
counsel, Kathryn R. Schmeltzer, Esquire, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, 2300 N Street, 
N.W., Washington, D.C. 20037-1128.
 
Sincerely,
Barbara A. Kreisman
