  • 24, 2002, the Commission's Media Bureau returned this application to Mr. Sarmiento as improperly filed, noting that FCC Form 319 is used to signify operation pursuant to a granted construction permit and that Tropical Estereo had never applied for or received the required construction permit for an LPFM station. The Media Bureau further noted that pursuant to 47 C.F.R. � 73.870(b), the required form for a construction permit for an LPFM license, FCC Form 318, will only be accepted during Commission-specified filing periods. Under Section 15.239 of the Rules, non-licensed broadcasting in the 88-108 MHz band is permitted only if the field strength of the transmissions does not exceed 250 �V/m at three meters.

On March 9, 2007, the Joint Parties and Indiana University filed a ``Joint Request for Approval of Settlement Agreement and Request for Approval of Withdrawal.'' Pursuant to that agreement, Indiana University would file a minor change application to modify the Station WIUX-LP license to specify operation on Channel 256 pursuant to Section 73.870(a) of the rules. Once this application is granted, Indiana University would then dismiss its Petition for Reconsideration in exchange for reimbursement for its legitimate and prudent expenses incurred in changing the Station WIUX-LP frequency.

Nevertheless, it is evident that strong interest exists to retain an outlet for KJC's programming.

The LCRA directs the Commission to, inter alia, eliminate third-adjacent channel LPFM protection requirements, establish LPFM interference remediation procedures and establish LPFM protection requirements for translator input signals on third-adjacent channels. The immediate resolution of those issues is unnecessary prior to resuming the processing of translator applications filed in the 2003 window. See 47 CFR �� 73.870, 74.1233.
