                        REPORT AND ORDER
                     (Proceeding Terminated)

   Adopted:  December 10, 1997          Released:  December 19, 1997  

By the Chief, Allocations Branch:

     1.  At the request of Wild West Broadcasting Company, Inc. ("petitioner"), the Commission
has before it the Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 12 FCC Rcd 13411 (1997),     proposing the
allotment of  Channel 234A to Goldsmith, Texas.  Petitioner filed comments restating its interest in
applying for Channel 234A, if allotted.  No other comments were received.

     2.  We believe the public interest would be served by allotting Channel 234A to Goldsmith
since it could provide the community with its first local aural transmission service.  Channel 234A
can be allotted to Goldsmith in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation
requirements with a site restriction of 11.9 kilometers (7.4 miles) southwest.

     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 February 2, 1998, the FM Table of
Allotments, Section 73.202(b) of the Commission's Rules, IS AMENDED, with respect to the
community listed below, to read as follows:

               City                                     Channel No.

               Goldsmith, Texas                    234A

     4.  A filing window for Channel 234A at Goldsmith, Texas, will not be opened at this time. 
Instead, the issue of opening a filing window for this channel will be addressed by the Commission
in a subsequent order.

     5.  IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That this proceeding IS TERMINATED.

     6.  For further information concerning this proceeding, contact Pam Blumenthal, Mass Media
Bureau, (202) 418-2180.
