In rereading 73.30, note 1, I think I have to agree with Roy on this. I 
had thought that the Congressional action that gave first X-band 
priority to "Class D stations located within the primary service 
contours of U.S. Class A stations that are licensed to serve communities 
of 100,000 or more for which there exists no local fulltime aural 
service" created those allocations separate from the petition process in 
73.30, but I guess I was wrong.

Can anyone - Roy? Harold? - provide a citation to the actual 
Congressional action in question? I can't find it through thomas.loc.gov.
