FIFTH VHF CHANNEL FOR SOUTH DAKOTA EDUCATIONAL NETWORK! The Commission adopted a counter proposal in Docket 15377 and assigned Channel *2 for educational noncommercial use in Seneca, South Dakota, instead of in Roscoe as originally proposed. By assigning the channel to Seneca, which is about 25 miles south of Roscoe, the same general area would be served, and short-spacing with the site proposed by the North Dakota Board of Higher Education for a new station on Channel *2 in Grand Forks, North Dakota, would be obviated. This makes the fifth VHF channel assigned to South Dakota for its statewide educational television network.
