The Media Bureau seeks comment on the Petition for Rulemaking submitted by Commander Communications Corporation requesting the Commission create a new FM station class “A10.”

Commander President Carl Haynes proposes specific operating parameters for the new Class A10 stations of a maximum of 10,000 watts effective radiated power and 100 meters height above average terrain. He also suggests amendments to minimum distance separation requirements for existing facilities to accommodate a new FM station class. This proposal is intended to supersede an earlier proposal for a new “Class C4” category of FM station.
