Transactions: 12/25/06-12/29/06
For a holiday week, the action wasn't that bad at the FCC's transaction room. There were only nine applicable documents filed, and they all involved radio, but they made it three quarters of the way to the 100M mark all told. The top three on the list all involved Clear Channel, as it picked up a station in Canton OH, swapped out of two Michigan markets and sold out of Cheyenne, accounting for 68.5M of the total.

Radio Deal of the Week
Swap shop in the eastern Midwest
We figure Ohio is about as east as the Midwest gets, and Michigan is almost as much. Clear Channel is getting an FM in Canton OH from Cumulus in exchange for four AMs and four FMs equally distributed in the Battle Creek and Ann Arbor MI markets. The value going each way is pegged at 26M, for a 52M total.
