                        REPORT AND ORDER
                     (Proceeding Terminated)

   Adopted:  September 6, 2000          Released:  September 7, 2000  

By the Chief, Video Services:

     1.  At the request of California Oregon Broadcasting, Inc. ("COBI"), licensee of Station
KOTI-TV, NTSC Channel 2, Klamath Falls, Oregon, the Commission has before it the Notice of
Proposed Rule Making, 14 FCC Rcd 17024 (1999), proposing the substitution of DTV Channel 13
for Station KOTI-TV's assigned DTV Channel 40.  COBI filed comments stating its intention to
apply for DTV Channel 13 at Klamath Falls, if allotted.

     2.  We believe the public interest would be served by substituting DTV Channel 13 for DTV
40 since it would allow Station KOTI-TV to replicate a larger portion of its analog service area. 
DTV Channel 13 can be allotted to Klamath Falls, Oregon, as proposed, in compliance with the
principle community coverage requirements of Section 73.625(a) at coordinates (42-05-48 N. and
121-37-57 W.).  In addition, we find that this channel is acceptable under the 2 percent criterion for
de minimis impact that is applied in evaluating requests for modification of initial DTV allotments
under Section 73.623(c)(2) for Station KOTI-TV with the following specifications:

                  DTV         DTV power       Antenna       DTV Service
State & City        Channel        (kW)           HAAT (m)       Pop. (thous.)

OR Klamath Falls        13             45.3                671                   102

     3.  Accordingly, pursuant to the authority contained in Sections 4(i), 5(c)(1), 303(g) and (r)
and 307(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and Sections 0.61, 0.204(b) and 0.283
of the Commission's Rules, IT IS ORDERED, That effective October 23, 2000, the DTV Table of
Allotments, Section 73.622(b) of the Commission's Rules, IS AMENDED, with respect to the
community listed below, to read as follows:

                    City                Channel No.

                    Klamath Falls, Oregon    13, 29, *33    

     4.  IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That within 45 days of the effective date of this Order,
California Oregon Broadcasting, Inc. shall submit to the Commission a minor change application for
a construction permit (FCC Form 301) specifying DTV Channel 13  in lieu of DTV Channel 40 for
Station KOTI-TV. 

     5.  IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, That this proceeding IS TERMINATED.

     6.  For further information concerning this proceeding, contact Pam Blumenthal, Mass Media
Bureau, (202) 418-1600.
