The Report and Order in this proceeding substituted Channel 288A
for vacant Channel 237A at South Padre Island, Texas to accommodate the
hybrid modification application for Station KRIX(FM), Port Isabel,
Texas resulting in the public interest because it would enhanced
service for Station KRIX(FM), Port Isabel, Texas. Channel 237A at South
Padre Island, Texas is not currently listed in the FM Table of
Allotments but is considered a vacant allotment resulting from the
license cancellation of FM station DKZSP, Fac. ID No. 56473, South
Padre Island, Texas. The Commission will send a copy of this Report and
Order in a report to be sent to Congress and the Government
Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see
