ORDER  
Adopted: May 24, 2011 Released:  May 25, 2011
By the Chief, Media Bureau:
1. In this Order, we adopt and incorporate by reference the attached Consent Decree entered 
into by the Media Bureau and Broadcast Towers, Inc. (“BTI”), licensee of the above-captioned FM 
translator stations (“Translators”). The Consent Decree resolves issues arising from the Bureau’s 
investigation into potential violations of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, (“Act”) and the 
Commission’s Rules (“Rules”) by BTI in the course of its migration of the Translators from the Florida 
Keys to the Miami, Florida area.  
2. The Consent Decree provides, among other things, that BTI shall cease broadcast 
operations in the State of Florida.  Specifically, BTI consents to the cancellation of the Commission 
authorizations for the Translators, and the dismissal of all pending applications related to the Translators.  
In addition, BTI agrees to the dismissal of all applications filed by it, which are related to broadcast 
stations, other than the Translators, and which propose communities of license located in the State of 
Florida.  Finally, BTI commits to divest itself of W285EH, Key West, Florida (Facility ID No. 139134), 
within one year after the release date of this Order, and consents to cancellation of the Commission 
authorization for W285EH and dismissal of all pending applications related to W285EH if such 
divestiture has not occurred by that date.  
3. BTI and its sole proprietor, William R. Lacy (“Lacy”), also make certain commitments 
related to compliance with the Act and the Rules.  Specifically, they commit to ensure that any transmitter 
site specified in any application to which either BTI or Lacy is a party is available for continuous use and 
commit to obtain reasonable assurance for the proposed use of any transmitter site specified in any 
application to which either is a party.  In addition, BTI and Lacy pledge to provide “dependable service” 
on any FM translator station licensed to them – or to any entity in which they hold an attributable interest 
– and pledge not to discontinue operation except for reasons beyond their control.  BTI and Lacy further 
commit to abide by Section 74.1233(a) of the Rules, which defines “major” changes in the context of the 
FM translator service.1  Finally, BTI represents that all FM translators, other than the Translators, for

which it holds an FCC authorization are in compliance with Section 74.1265(b) of the Rules and pledges 
that it will ensure compliance with Section 74.1265(b) on a going forward basis.2
4. After reviewing the terms of the Consent Decree, we believe that the public interest will 
by served by its adoption.  We also conclude that the matters raised in our investigation do not raise any 
substantial or material questions of fact regarding BTI’s qualifications to remain a Commission licensee.
5. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Section 4(i) and (j) of the Act,3 and 
Sections 0.61 and 0.283 of the Rules,4 that the Consent Decree attached hereto IS ADOPTED.
6. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order shall be sent, by first class mail 
and certified mail, return receipt requested, to Broadcast Towers, Inc., 6910 N.W. 2nd Terrace, Boca 
Raton, Florida 33487.
