Exhibits
Exhibit 34
Description:
JUSTIFICATION FOR STA EXTENSION 07-17-2018

ON AUGUST 26, 2016, THE FCC GRANTED WHYF A CONSTRUCTION PERMIT TO RELOCATE TO A PERMANENT TRANSMITTER SITE, FILE NO. BP-20140820AAR. THIS CP IS VALID FOR JUST OVER THIRTEEN MORE MONTHS FROM TODAY, OR AUGUST 26, 2019.

THIS NEW FACILITY WOULD BE A DIPLEXED ANTENNA SHARED BY WHYF(AM) AND BY A NEW AM STATION ON 850 KHZ AT ENOLA, PENNSYLVANIA TO BE CONSTRUCTED BY EDWARD A. SCHOBER, FIN 160207, FILE NO. BNP-20140721ABD. ENTERCOM COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION, LICENSEE OF CO-CHANNEL WEEI, BOSTON, MA, FILED AN INFORMAL OBJECTION. MR. SCHOBER FILED A CURATIVE AMENDMENT ON NOVEMBER 16, 2017, AND ENTERCOM WITHDREW ITS INFORMAL OBJECTION ON NOVEMBER 29, 2017. MR. SCHOBER FILED A FURTHER AMENDMENT ON DECEMBER 19, 2017. OUR CHECK OF THE FCC'S CDBS DATABASE AS OF TODAY (JULY 17, 2018) INDICATED THAT THE FCC HAS NOT YET ACTED ON THE SCHOBER ENOLA 850 KHZ APPLICATION.

IT IS HOPED THAT MR. SCHOBER'S APPLICATION WILL BE GRANTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, SO THAT CONSTRUCTION CAN BEGIN ON THE DIPLEXED ANTENNA SYSTEM TO BE SHARED BY MR. SCHOBER'S STATION AND WHYF.

THE LICENSEE HOPES TO BEGIN CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW WHYF FACILITY WITHIN 180 DAYS AFTER THE GRANT OF THE SCHOBER APPLICATION.

THE PUBLIC INTEREST, CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY WOULD BE WELL SERVED BY A GRANT OF THIS STA REQUEST, WHICH WILL ALLOW WHYF TO REMAIN ON THE AIR WITH THE FACILITY DESCRIBED IN THE ATTACHED EXHIBIT.
