The State’s consultants then sought to identify frequencies outside the Part 90
public safety pool that might be suitable for use in the system. This effort included a
review of channels allocated in the VHF Paging and Radiotelephone Service band
under Part 22 as well as in the VHF Public Coast Service band under Part 80. The
State’s engineering consultants concluded that five Part 22 channel pairs could meet its
channel requirements. Accordingly, the State has filed the four instant applications in
this proceeding to seek FCC consent to acquire or use these channels for the MOSWIN
system.
Specifically, in an application on FCC Form 603 pending under ULS File No.
0004961767, the State requests FCC consent to acquire three Part 22 channel pairs
licensed under call signs WPVF241, WPVF244 and WPVF245 to Warner
Communications Corporation (“Warner”). The licenses for these stations authorize
Warner to operate on the Channel Blocks FM (152.645-152.675 / 158.905-158.935
MHz), FQ (152.765-152.795 / 158.025-158.055 MHz), and FR (152.795-152.825 /
158.055-158.085 MHz) in Basic Economic Area (“BEA”) No. 96 - St. Louis, MissouriIllinois.
In another application on FCC Form 603, pending under ULS File No.
0005019389, the State seeks FCC consent to acquire two additional Part 22 channel
pairs licensed under call signs WPVM814 and WQAH684 to Communications
Equipment Holdings, Inc. (“CEH”). The licenses for these stations authorize CEH to
operate on Channel Blocks FH (152.510-152.530 / 157.770-157.790 MHz) and FI
(152.525-152.555 / 157.785-157.815 MHz), also in BEA No/ 96.
A third application on FCC Form 603, pending under ULS File No. 0004963364,
seeks FCC consent for the State to acquire a partition (designated by the coordinates
listed in Schedule C of the application) of the license issued under call sign WQMT585
to Scott C. MacIntyre. That license authorizes Mr. MacIntyre to operate on Channel
Block FQ (152.765-152.795 / 158.025-158.055 MHz) in adjacent BEA No. 95 -
Jonesboro, AR-MO, which encompasses an area to south of BEA No. 96.

Last, the State filed an application on FCC Form 601, pending under ULS File
No. 0005160243, seeking permission to operate facilities at Bloomfield, Missouri, on
one of the channel blocks in the geographic area it proposes to acquire from Warner:
Channel Block FI (152.525-152.555 / 157.785-157.815 MHz) in BEA No. 96. As
discussed in greater detail in Section V(E) below, FCC permission is required because
the interference contour of the Bloomfield site extends slightly into adjacent BEA No. 95;
the FCC’s rules require licensees to ensure that the interference contours of their
operations fall within their licensed geographic areas unless they obtain the consent of
the adjacent co-channel licensee. Id. at 22.567(d). In this case, however, the channel
is not currently assigned by the FCC to another licensee.
Although the State’s consultants were able to find two Part 90 protected
FB8/MO8 channel pairs for operation at the Bloomfield site, it was not able to find the
requisite five it needs to ensure adequate coverage at that location. Accordingly, by this
fourth application, the State seeks appropriate authority to operate on Channel Block FI
at Bloomfield, Missouri.
For convenience and reference, the table below summarizes the channel blocks,
licensees, call signs, and application file numbers associated with its acquisition of five
Part 22 channel pairs in BEA No. 96. The table also identifies the FCC applications or
letters of concurrence (“LoCs”) required so that the interference contour of the State’s
proposed operations at Bloomfield, Missouri, on Channel Blocks FI and FQ may overlap
into the adjacent geographic areas BEA No. 073 and BEA No. 95.

As illustrated by the graphic under Exhibit A, the interference contour of the Bloomfield
site also extends on Channel Blocks FI and FQ into BEA No. 73 and on Channel Block FQ into
BEA No. 95. The State does not need authority with respect to the overlap on these channels in
these BEAs, however. It has obtained concurrences for the overlap from the licensee on
Channel Block FI in BEA No. 73—KTI, Inc.— and from the licensee on Channel Block FQ in
BEA No. 73—Integrated Communications, Inc. See Letter from Stephen T. Devine, Missouri
DPS, to Kent Hunt, KTI, Inc. (executed Oct. 14, 2011; Letter from Stephen T. Devine, Missouri
DPS, to Clay Golday, Integrated Communications, Inc. (executed Nov. 1, 2011)(attached under
Exhibit B). Moreover, grant of the application pending under File No. 0004963364 to partition
Channel Block FQ from Scott M
