After having its permit voided by the FCC three weeks ago and being ordered to cease operation on Sept 15, PST a subsidiary of National Airlines Saturday ice on Sept 15. This gave a total 4) 1.0 of only 63 calendar days in which the new broadcasters must ob tain studios, transmitters, towers and all the other equipment, staff, programs and what-have- you to begin their telecasts.
