                             ORDER


   Adopted:  October 8, 1999            Released:  October 8, 1999

By the Deputy Chief, Commercial Wireless Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:

     1.   This Order grants a petition for reconsideration (Petition), filed by Ameritech Mobile
Services, Inc. (AMSI) on January 13, 1999, of an action taken by the Commercial Wireless Division
(Division) of the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau.

     2.   On October 16, 1995, AMSI filed the above-captioned application for authority to
construct and operate a base station on the frequency 931.3375 MHz at Boardman, Ohio.  On May 7,
1995, AMSI filed a minor amendment to the application to demonstrate interference-free operation with
respect to a protected co-channel station and, thus, eliminate any possible mutual exclusivity with other
applications.  The Narrowband Branch, however, never acted upon this minor amendment.  Because the
minor amendment was inadvertently never considered, the Division dismissed AMSI's application on
December 14, 1998, on the basis that it was mutually exclusive with one or more other pending paging
applications.  

     3.   On January 13, 1999, AMSI filed the instant Petition seeking reconsideration of the
dismissal of its application.  Because the minor amendment eliminates the possibility that the subject
application is mutually exclusive with any other application, we hereby grant AMSI's Petition. 
  
     4.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to sections 4(i) and 405 of the
Communications Act, as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), (405), and by sections 0.331 and 1.106 of
the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.331, 1.106, the petition for reconsideration filed by
Ameritech Mobile Services, Inc. on January 13, 1999 IS GRANTED.
