    SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of WLME, Inc, substitutes 
    Channel 246A for Channel 289A at Hawesville, Kentucky, and modifies 
    Station WKCM-FM's license accordingly. To accommodate the allotment, we 
    also substitute Channel 289A for vacant Channel 245A at Tell City, 
    Indiana. See 60 FR 90, January 3, 1995. Channel 246A can be substituted 
    for Channel 289A at Hawesville in compliance with the Commission's 
    minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 3.7 
    kilometers (2.3 miles) northeast at petitioner's presently licensed 
    site. The reference coordinates for Channel 246A at Hawesville are 
    North Latitude 37-55-33 and West Longitude 86-43-19. See Supplementary
