   Adopted:  October 25, 1999           Released:  October 25, 1999

By the Chief, Policy and Rules Branch, Commercial Wireless Division, Wireless Telecommunications
Bureau:  

     1.   On July 29, 1994, NABER, on behalf of Radiofone, Inc. (Radiofone), filed the captioned
applications for private carrier paging authorization on frequencies 929.6375 and 929.6875 MHz.  On
March 9, 1995, the Commercial Wireless Division's Land Mobile Branch (Branch) returned the
applications pursuant to section 90.495(d), finding that applications for channel exclusivity may request no
more than one frequency in each location to be serviced.  Radiofone filed requests for waiver (Waiver
Requests) of section 90.495(d) of the Commission's rules on May 4, 1995.  For the reasons discussed
below, we dismiss the Waiver Requests as moot and grant authorizations on frequency 929.6375 MHz.   
     
     2.   In captioned applications and the Waiver Requests, Radiofone seeks authorization to
operate on frequencies 929.6375 and 929.6875 MHz with regional exclusivity.  Section 90.175(f) of the
Commission's rules requires that applications for frequencies in the 929-930 MHz band include a statement
from the frequency coordinator recommending the most appropriate frequency.  Radiofone's applications
were coordinated by NABER prior to their filing with the Commission.  However, at the time Radiofone's
applications were filed, July 29, 1994, there was pending before the Commission a request by Greenline
Partners Inc. (Greenline Waiver), filed on April 21, 1994, seeking a waiver of the nationwide exclusivity
rules in order to obtain nationwide exclusivity on frequency 929.6875 MHz.  Because Greenline's Waiver
requesting nationwide exclusivity on frequency 929.6875 MHz was pending at the time Radiofone sought
regional exclusivity on the same frequency, NABER did not properly coordinate Radiofone's applications
seeking regional exclusivity on 929.6875 MHz before it was filed with the Commission.  Accordingly, we
deny Radiofone's captioned applications to the extent they seek authorizations for frequency 929.6875
MHz.
   
      3.  Radiofone's applications seeking authorization on frequency 929.6375 MHz, however, 
were properly coordinated by NABER.  Accordingly, we grant Radiofone's captioned applications to the
extent they seek authorizations for frequency 929.6375 MHz.

     4.   Having denied Radiofone's applications for frequency 929.6875 MHz, and having granted
its applications for frequency 929.6375 MHz, we determine its Waiver Requests to be moot.  We therefore,
dismiss Radiofone's Waiver Requests.    
     
     5.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to section 4(i) of the Communications Act,
as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), (405), and section 0.331 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.331,
the Applications of Radiofone, Inc., filed on July 29, 1994, ARE DENIED to the extent that they seek
authorization for frequency 929.6875 MHz.  

     6.   IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, pursuant to sections 4(i) and 405 of the
Communications Act, as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), (405), and by section 0.331 of the Commission's
rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.331, the Applications of Radiofone, Inc., filed on July 29, 1994, ARE GRANTED to
the extent they seek authorization for frequency 929.6375 MHz. 

     7.   IT IS FURTHER 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 1.931 of the
Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.331, 1.931, the Requests for Waiver filed by Radiofone, Inc. on May
4, 1995, ARE DISMISSED as moot.
