1340 is more than 30 kHz from 1550.

Your choices appear to be 1520, 1530, 1540, 1560, 1570 and 1580.

1570 and 1580 might be easier as these are foreign clears, as is 1550, 
your current situation.

1520, 1530, 1540 and 1560 are U.S. clears, with 2, 2, 1 and 2 48-state 
Class As on-channel, respectively. Of these, only 1540 has a foreign clear.
