## Abstract

This Second Order on Reconsideration decides issues raised by a petitioner concerning the previous Order on Reconsideration, 56 FR 57596 (Nov. 13, 1991), which reevaluated a number of issues decided in the Report and Order, 55 FR 46006 (Oct. 31, 1990); Erratum, 55 FR 46513 (Nov. 5, 1990). The Order on Reconsideration and Report and Order were adopted to further enhance wireless cable service as a viable competitor in the multichannel video entertainment marketplace, by revising the rules governing the various microwave radio channels that can be used collectively to provide wireless cable service. The Second Order on Reconsideration modifies and clarifies some decisions made in the Order on Reconsideration. Rule changes include revision to the definition of the protected service area for Multipoint Distribution Service (MDS) stations, the deadline for service by MDS applicants and authorized cochannel and adjacent-channel Instructional Television Fixed Service (ITFS) stations and the deadline for ITFS stations to file petitions to deny for MDS applications. Clarifications were also made concerning transmitter frequency offset when proposed in an MDS applications as an interference abatement technique and adoption of the same calendar day cut-off rule.
