Abstract
In this proceeding the Commission relaxes the technical requirements for directional AM stations. The new rules reduce the number of measurements required as part of directional AM license applications and eliminate outdated operating requirements. The changes, consistent with the Commission's streamlining initiatives, reduce the regulatory burden upon directional AM stations to the extent possible while maintaining the integrity of the service.
