Dear Counsel:

This letter concerns the above captioned mutually exclusive applications for a new FM broadcast station in Rio 
Grande, Puerto Rico. On February 17, 2000, you submitted a Joint Request for Approval of Settlement 
Agreement with the Commission, providing for a settlement whereby the application of United Broadcasters 
Company will be granted as amended, and the remaining three applications will be dismissed.  Accordingly, this 
letter is notification that MX Group FM1 and the above- referenced applications are hereby removed from the 





Closed Broadcast Auction No. 28 scheduled for March 21, 2000.  See Public Notice, "Closed Broadcast Auction" 
DA 99-2958, released December 23, 1999.  
							
						Sincerely,



						Linda Blair
