The original "take away from the broadcasters" chunk of 700 MHz was for Public Safety and commercial broadband, the so-called "D Block". The FCC under Congressional pressure was to auction off the commercial portion - Public Safety is not auctionable. The PS folks (my company's clients) pressured the Commission that they needed all of the D-Block, and two other 20 MHz chunks separated by 30 MHz between them had to,be found to compensate for the loss of auction revenue from D-Block. It was Rep. Peter King (R-NY) who introduced a bill to chop up the 400 MHz spectrum and auction it off to compensate for the loss of D-Block revenue. It's not law yet and the FCC has to play it cool. Guess what? 420-440 MHz is really US Government spectrum - we hams are there "by sufferance" (secondary users). "But the hams still can use 440-450" True. That's where most of our repeaters are. No SSTV. No experimentation......Strike One. The companion chunk would be 450-470 MHz. Public Safety and all the Industrial 2-way users!!! Broadcast Remote Pickup!!! Plenty of services with lots of leverage. Strike Two. Some of us think that those choices were recommended to Rep. King "untouched by human brain". Was it NTIA? Maybe they need better spectrum managers there. Stay tuned and hang on! -- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane From a Clearing in the Silicon Forest Beaverton (Washington County) Oregon e-mail: k2asp [at] arrl [dot] net |

The issue is that the original plan was to give 700 MHZ to businesses, but now they want to take it and give it to Police, Fire, EMS types, This will not produce any milk (Cash) so they have to find another cow to milk for money..... And alas, we are it. |
