Auction News
Several years ago, the FCC changed the way they awarded Construction Permits (CP) for AM and FM radio stations.  Now, when a frequency is allocated for a city, it is auctioned and awarded to the highest bidder.  Look here to see if any frequencies have been alloted near your location.

The FCC has issued Report and Orders (R&O) for several allotments that you'll find on this page.  However, filing windows will not open until the auction process has been determined.  If you would like a complete list, please contact us.  We will be happy to address any of your questions.
