                   ORDER ON RECONSIDERATION  


   Adopted:  November 23, 1999          Released:  November 23, 1999

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


     1.   On June 23, 1999, The Northcentral Broadcasting Co. (Northcentral) filed a petition for
reconsideration (petition) of a June 22, 1999, decision by the Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch
(Branch) of the Commercial Wireless Division, dismissing the above-captioned application for renewal of
license authorization because it did not contain a valid signature.  Section 1.743(e) of the Commission's rules
provides that applications must contain "an original hand-written signature."  
      
     2.   Northcentral presents no arguments in its petition that would lead us to change the Branch's
decision.  We therefore affirm the Branch's decision for the reasons stated therein.

     3.   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 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 The Northcentral Broadcasting Co., on June 23,
1999, IS DENIED.
