See Streamlining MO&O, 14 FCC Rcd at 17538-39. See 47 C.F.R. 73.183. See also 47 C.F.R. 73.190 (Figure R3, replicating Figure M3). Neither of the two remaining events warrants additional construction time. While our grant of additional time encompasses the period in which Salem's informal objection was under consideration, our action is not based on the informal objection. Such objections are not comparable to the type of administrative review that qualifies for tolling. Similarly, initial zoning is

Consulting Engineers Valcom Antenna Approval Request Page 3 The observed unattenuated field values of Valcom poles exceed those shown for their physical heights on the graph which appears as Figure 8 of Section 73.190 of the FCC Rules. Two aspects of their design are responsible for this, their Valcosphere top-loading and their loading coils that are situated far enough above ground to reduce the antenna-to ground voltage in the base region which, in turn, reduces dielectric losses in the nearby soil. The effects lead to antenna efficiency improvements that are predictable and measurable. The

Neither of the two remaining events warrants additional construction time. While our grant of additional time encompasses the period in which Salem's informal objection was under consideration, our action is not based on the informal objection. Such objections are not comparable to the type of administrative review that qualifies for tolling. Similarly, initial zoning is

If non-directional, in the Non-Directional Section check both the Day and Night boxes and fill in the estimated efficiency based on 73.190, Figure 8. There is no critical hours operation in the expanded band so do not check that box. For the Non- Directional/ Directional section of Question 6, check the method of excitation and complete the tower height information table for the expanded band tower only. * Question 7 must be answered only if a new site and/or new tower construction

- and sunset, the extended skywave signal can be strong enough to interfere with other stations. This daytime skywave phenomenon was the focus of a protracted rulemaking proceeding that commenced in 1947 and finally culminated in 1959 with the adoption of [47]Section 73.187, Limitation on daytime radiation (also called the "critical hours" rule), and Figures 9, 10, and 11 in Section 73.190. See the Report and Order in Docket 8333, adopted September 18, 1959 [ [48]PDF ], petitions for reconsideration denied, adopted December 9, 1959 [ [49]PDF ]. The rule provides for operation at a lower power during critical hours time periods to limit interference from new or changed Class B or D stations (where the changes were made after 1959) operating
