ORDER
Adopted: October 24, 2008   Released: October 27, 2008
By the Assistant Chief, Audio Division, Media Bureau:
1. The Audio Division, on its own motion, hereby sets aside the Report and Order1 in this 
proceeding pursuant to Section 1.113(a) of the Commission’s Rules2 and provides interested parties with 
the opportunity to file competing expressions of interest in FM Channel 299C3, Madisonville, Texas, in 
compliance with Section 1.420(g) of the Commission’s Rules.3  
2.  The R&O granted a counterproposal (RM-11423) to allot FM Channel 267A at 
Normangee, Texas. To accommodate this new allotment, the R&O substituted Channel 299C3 for 
Channel 267A as the reserved assignment for Station KKLB(FM), Madisonville, Texas, in the Media 
Bureau’s Consolidated Data Base System, pursuant to Section 1.420(g) of the Commission’s Rules. The 
R&O also denied, on a comparative basis, a counterproposal (RM-11422) to allot Channel 299A to 
Buffalo, Texas, and denied a rulemaking petition (RM-11411) to allot Channel 299A at Iola, Texas, 
because no continuing expression of interest in that proposed allotment was filed.
3. Although a Public Notice4 was issued in this proceeding, announcing the filing of the 
two counterproposals and providing a 15-day period for filing reply comments to these counterproposals, 
the Public Notice did not, with respect to RM-11423, solicit competing expressions of interest for 
upgraded, non-adjacent Channel 299C3 at Madisonville. Therefore, we set aside the R&O in order to 
comply with Section 1.420(g).  Parties may file competing expressions of interest in Channel 299C3 at 
Madisonville, Texas, within 15 days from the release date of this Order.5
4. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED, That our action in the Report and Order IS SET 
ASIDE pursuant to Section 1.113(a) of the Commission’s Rules.
5. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That interested parties may file expressions of interest in 
  
1 Buffalo, Iola, Normangee, and Madisonville, Texas, Report and Order, DA 08-2267 (rel. Oct. 10, 2008) (“R&O”).
2 47 C.F.R. § 113(a) (providing the staff with the discretion to set aside an action taken under delegated authority 
within 30 days of public notice of that action).
3 47 C.F.R. §1.420(g) (permitting, in the course of a rulemaking proceeding,  the modification of the license or 
permit of an FM station in the non-reserved FM band to a non-adjacent channel in the same community provided 
that there is no other timely filed expression of interest in the non-adjacent channel).                
4 Report No. 2859 (rel. Apr. 2, 2008). 
5 The reference coordinates for Channel 229C3 at Madisonville, Texas, are 30-53-45 NL and 96-04-31 WL.
