The FCC Media Bureau denied a petition for reconsideration by Texas radio stations that wanted a “daisy chain” of FM allotments involving 11 Texas communities. Rawhide Radio, Clear Channel and Clear Channel Texas requested a counterproposal that was denied due to the FCC’s minimum distance separation rule, the bureau said in an order (http://bit.ly/1rektNu) released Thursday. The parties suggested an engineering solution by modifying the reference coordinates for their Channel 297A substitution at Llano, Texas, but the bureau didn’t accept the modification because it was late, the bureau said.
