Reminder - Freeze on FM Minor Mod Applications and Opening of FM Auction Window
Just a reminder that there will be a freeze on the filing of minor modifications for commercial and noncommercial FM radio stations from November 6 through November 13, 2006. This week-long filing freeze on minor mods corresponds to the opening of the filing window for the submission of FCC Form 175 short form applications for participation in FM Auction No. 68. As we reported earlier on this blog, Auction No. 68 will offer 9 construction permits that were previously unsold from earlier FCC FM auctions. The filing freeze will allow auction applicants to specify preferred site coordinates for these nine allotments as part of their short form applications. The filing window will officially open on noon ET Monday, November 6th and close at 6PM ET on Monday, November 13th, so plan your filings accordingly.
