Second Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the above-captioned proceeding, FCC 97-391, which was
released November 3, 1997.  These errors will be corrected prior to publication of the Report and
Order and Second Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the Federal Register and in the FCC Record.

     2.   The text of footnote 9 is revised to read as follows:  "For both new and incumbent 39
GHz licensees, the showing required for build-out and that for obtaining a renewal expectancy are
combined into one showing at the time of renewal."
 
     3.    The text of paragraphs 2 and 178 in the Report and Order and Second Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking is revised to delete the reference to Part 2 of the Commission's rules, because
that rule part is not being amended by the Commission's action.
