A Councilman for the City of the New York has signaled that he intends to introduce legislation requiring AM radio receivers in all city-owned and city-contracted vehicles — a signal that kHz-band broadcast stations remain essential in North America's biggest municipality.

He had been associated with a Mayfield, Ky., AM radio station since 1976 and orchestrated its "revitalization" by adding an FM translator to the mix. On July 27, he passed away at the age of 72. Now, the future of his radio assets is becoming clearer.

As of this morning, the LMS is operational. And, the FCC — with help from the Federal Register's editorial team — is moving quickly with establishing the comment window on the long-delayed 2022 Quadrennial Review of the Commission's media ownership rules.

This document proposes to amend the Table of FM Allotments, by substituting Channel 277A for vacant Channel 221A at Hamilton, Alabama; Channel 261B1 for vacant Channel 261B at Coalinga, California; Channel 289A for vacant Channel 291A at Rocksprings, Texas; Channel 261A for vacant Channel 221A at Silverton, Texas; and Channel 281C2 for vacant Channel 260C2 at Spur, Texas. The existing vacant FM channels are not in compliance with the minimum distance separation requirements of the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) rules, and vacant Channel 261B at Coalinga is also not in compliance with the city-grade coverage requirements of the Commission's rules. See Supplementary Information.
