REPORT AND ORDER
(Proceeding Terminated)
Adopted: October 3, 2007   Released: October 5, 2007
By the Assistant Chief, Audio Division, Media Bureau:
1. The Audio Division has before it a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking1 issued at the request 
of Terry A. Cowan (“Petitioner”), proposing the allotment of Channel 226C3 at Prineville, Oregon.2  
Petitioner filed comments reiterating his continuing interest.  Linda Crawford also filed comments 
expressing her interest.  No  counterproposals were received in this proceeding.
2. We allot alternate Channel 299C3 at Prineville in lieu of Channel 226C3.  This alternate 
channel avoids a conflict with an application for Station KTIL-FM, Channel 232C3 at Tillamook, Oregon 
to change its channel and community of license to Channel 232C2 at Government Camp, Oregon.3 In 
order to accommodate that application, it was necessary for the applicant to propose the substitution of 
Channel 225C0 for Channel 231C0 at Bend, Oregon, and modification of the Station KXIX(FM) license 
to specify operation on Channel 225C0.  This modification conflicts with the originally proposed Channel 
226C3 allotment at Prineville.
3. We find that Prineville is a community for allotment purposes and that the public interest 
would be served by allotting Channel 299C3 at Prineville as a fourth local commercial FM service.  
Channel 299C3 can be allotted at Prineville consistent with the Commission’s minimum distance 
separation requirements at 44-26-17 North Latitude and 120-57-12 West Longitude with a site restriction 
of 11.4 kilometers (7.1 miles) north of city reference.  
4. Accordingly, pursuant to the authority found in 47 U.S.C. Sections 4(i), 5(c)(1), 303(g) 
and (r) and 307(b) and 47 C.F.R. Sections 0.61, 0.204(b) and 0.283, IT IS ORDERED, That effective,
  
1 See Prineville, Oregon, Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 22 FCC Rcd 4188 (MB 2007). 
2 Petitioner filed the petition for rule making pursuant to Revision of Procedures Governing Amendments to FM 
Table of Allotments and Changes of Community of License in the Radio Broadcast Services Report and Order, 21 
FCC Rcd 14212 (2006)  (“Revised Allotment Procedures R&O”).

November 19, 2007, the FM Table of Allotments, 47 C.F.R. Section 73.202(b), IS AMENDED4 for the 
community listed below, as follows:
Community Channel No.
Prineville, Oregon 299C3, 267C1
5. A summary of this Report and Order will be published in the Federal Register because we 
are amending Section 73.202(b) of the Commission’s Rules.
6. A filing window period for Channel 299C3 at Prineville, Oregon will not be opened at this 
time.  Instead, the issue of opening this allotment for auction will be addressed by the Commission in a 
subsequent order.
7. The Commission will send a copy of this Report and Order in a report to be sent to 
Congress and the Government Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 
U.S.C. Section 801(a)(1)(A).
8. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That the aforementioned proceeding IS TERMINATED.
9.         For further information concerning this proceeding, contact Rolanda F. Smith, Media Bureau,
