The Commission responds that the new entrant bidding credit does not depend upon an applicant's ``size'' but upon its other attributable media interests; the ``size'' criterion applies only to the ``small business bidding credit,'' which is based upon the bidder's revenues. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 90.810, 90.814. The Commission points out that the definition of a ``major amendment'' in the regulation, which predates the introduc- tion of the new entrant bidding credit, refers only to certain changes in ownership, certain changes in size, and changes in the intended service areas. 16 F.C.C.
