     Dear Mr. Abelson:

             This is written on behalf of Saga Communications of Michigan, Inc. ("Saga"), licensee of
     Satellite Earth Station E872070. On June 16, 2003, Saga filed an application for consent to pro
     fForma assignment of license of E872070 from Saga to Saga Communications of Michigan, LLC.
     In connection with the processing of that application, the Commission‘s staff has brought to our
     attention that the Commission was not notified of the consummation of a prior pro forma
      assignment of license from Great Lakes Radio Network, Inc. ("Great Lakes"), to Saga. This
      letter rectifies that omission. Attached hereto is a copy of our transmittal letter covering the
      1999 application for pro forma assignment of license of E872070 from Great Lakes to Saga.
      Our letter indicates that consent to the pro forma assignment inadvertently had not been sought
      until after Great Lakes was already merged into Saga. The Commission approved the pro forma
      assignment application on December 1, 1999.

             Should there be any questions regarding this matter, please communicate with
      undersigned counsel.
                                                  Very truly yours,
