Raide and Radio Corporation agree to make a voluntary

Corporation further agree, inter alia, that, in accordance 
with 47 U.S.C. § 310(d), Raide shall operate Station WKRH as 
licensee until such time as Raide's application to assign 
the license for Station WKRH (File No. BALH-20000308AAB) is 
granted and consummated.2  

     2.  The Enforcement Bureau, Raide and Radio Corporation
