Abstract

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission modifies its practices and procedures regarding the assignment of call signs to radio and television broadcast stations. The document replaces the Commission's existing manual procedures with an on-line system for the electronic preparation and submission of requests for the reservation and authorization of new and modified call signs. Implementation of the on-line call sign system will enhance the speed and certitude of radio and television broadcast station call sign assignments, thereby providing better service to all broadcast licensees and permittees, and will also conserve Commission resources.
