RADIO RULES:  FCC COMMISSIONER PAI WANTS AM REVITALIZATION SHOULD BE
COMPLETED BY END OF OCTOBER

FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai has set the end of October as the target for
getting the regulatory agency's AM Revitalization plan completed.  He made
that commitment on Monday, May 5th in a speech to the Pennsylvania
Association of Broadcasters gathered in Hershey Pennsylvania.

During his talk, Pai said that time isn't on the side of the grand old AM
band, so he wants to  commit to getting the FCC's work done by Haloween.

Pai noted that the FCC proposals will not be a panacea for the real
problems confronting AM broadcasters, that they will help.  He added that
he plans to hold a series of meetings with stakeholders to discuss these
proposals.  (B&C)

    Have a day!
