                      MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER 
                         (Proceeding Terminated)                                  

   Adopted:  February 25, 1998                              Released:  March 6, 1998

 By the Chief, Policy and Rules Division:
 
     1. The Commission has before it a Petition for Reconsideration ("Petition") of the
 Report and Order ("R&O") in the above-docketed proceeding, 10 FCC Rcd 2864 (1995), filed
 by Antelope Broadcasting Co., Inc. ("Antelope"), licensee of Station KAVS(FM), Channel
 249A (97.7 MHz), Mojave, California.  Spanish Broadcasting System of Florida, Inc.
 ("SBSF"), licensee of Station KLAX-FM, Channel 250B (97.9 MHz), Long Beach, California,
 filed a series of motions for additional time to file its opposition to the Petition.  Thereafter,
 Antelope filed a Request for Contingent Withdrawal of Petition for Reconsideration ("Request
 for Withdrawal").  For the reasons discussed below, we will dismiss the Petition for
 Reconsideration.
 
     2. The Commission had issued a Notice of Proposed Rule Making ("Notice"), 5 FCC
 Rcd 956 (1990), which proposed, at the request of SBSF, the reallotment of Channel 250B
 from Long Beach to East Los Angeles, and the modification of its license accordingly (RM-
 7123).  Antelope filed comments requesting that the reference coordinates specified by SBSF
 in its rule making petition be changed to accommodate Antelope's then-pending application
 (File No. BPH-901016IB) to operate its Mojave Station KAVS(FM) as a six kilowatt facility.
 
     3. The R&O granted SBSF's petition to reallot Channel 250B from Long Beach to East
 Los Angeles and to modify its license accordingly.  We declined to change the reference
 coordinates for the allotment, noting that this would exacerbate a grandfathered short-spacing
 with Station KIFM(FM), San Diego, California and that, in any event, the proposed change
 in reference coordinates may be unnecessary.
 
     4. The Request for Withdrawal expressly states that it is contingent on the grant of the
 application to increase the effective radiated power of Station KAVS(FM) at Mojave to six
 kilowatts and on the grant of an application for Station KLAX-FM to specify its facilities at
 a location in East Los Angeles (File No. BPH-961104IA).  The Commission has now granted
 Antelope's and SBSF's applications, and these grants are now final.  Accordingly, we will
 grant Antelope's request to withdraw its Petition.
 
     5. IT IS ORDERED That the Petition for Reconsideration filed by Antelope
 Broadcasting Co., Inc. of the Report and Order in this proceeding IS DISMISSED.
 
     6. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That this proceeding is TERMINATED.
