Channel 228A at Aspen, Colorado was allotted in 2001, as the community's third local FM commercial service without a site restriction at coordinates 39-11-24 NL and 106-49-06 WL. Channel 228A at Leadville, Colorado is a vacant allotment resulting from the cancellation of the Station KRMH-FM license in 1997. *See* BLH-19860207KD.
The reference coordinates for vacant Channel 228A at Leadville are 39-14-51 NL and 106-17-57 WL.
