REPORT AND ORDER 
(Proceeding Terminated) 
RM-7769 
Adopted: January 23, 1992; Released: February 4, 1992 
By the Assistant Chief. Allocations Branch: 
I. The Commission has before it for consideration the 
Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 6 FCC Red 4925 (1991). 
proposing the allotment of Channel 29JC3 1 to Antigo. 
Wisconsin. as that community's second FM broadcast ser­
vice. The iVotice was issued in response to a petition filed 
by Nicolet Broadcasting, Inc. ("petitioner"). Petitioner 
filed comments reaffirming its interest in the allotment of 
Channel 291C3 at Antigo. Thorp Broadcasting filed a 
counterproposal. which has not been accepted. 2 
2. We believe the public interest would be served by 
allotting Channel 291C3 to Antigo. Wisconsin. in order to 
provide the community with a second broadcast service. 
As indicated in the Notice, Channel 291C3 can be allotted 
to Antigo consistent with the Commission's spacing re­
quirements without a site restriction:! Since Antigo is 
located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the 
U.S.-Canadian border. concurrence of the Canadian gov­
ernment has been obtained for this allotment. 
3. Accordingly. pursuant to the authority contained in 
Sections 4(i). 5(c)( 1). 303(g) and (r) and 307(b) of the 
Communications Act of 1934. as amended. and Sections 
0.61. 0.204(b) and 0.283 of the Commission's Rules. IT IS 
ORDERED. That effective March 20, 1992, the FM Table 
of Allotments. Section 73.202(b) of the Commission's 
Rules. IS AMENDED for the community listed below, to 
read as follows: 
Community 
Antigo. Wisconsin 
Channel No. 
287C 1. 291 C3 
Petitioner originally requested the allotment of Channel 
2.J2C3 to Antigo. However. to avoid a short spacing to Channel 
2.J2A. Station WEZR, Brillion, Wisconsin. we proposed the al­
lotment of Channel 291C3. The construction permit for Station 
WEZR, Brillion. was amended to specify operation on Channel 
298A in lieu of Channel 242A. effective July I. 1991. See 6 FCC 
Red 2624 ( 1991 ). A Notice was adopted on July 8, 1991, propos­
ing the substitution of Channel 298C3 for Channel 298A at 
Brillion and modification of its construction permit accordingly.

4. The window period for filing applications will open 
on March 23, 1992, and close on April 22, 1992. 
5. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That this proceeding 
IS TERMINATED.
