This reminds me to reach out to Liz about some abandoned licenses around here.

If they aren't paying attention you are golden. If they are then submit the license request anyway. It will be rubber stamped and issued. Their protest, if they bother, is going to have to include documentation of their squatting and that is not going to help their case. Someone needs to stand up to these guys. Might as well be you Mark. PC Blaze Broadband On December 15, 2014 8:16:04 PM EST, Mark Radabaugh via Af <af@afmug.com> wrote: The squatting by the HFT guys is really ticking me off at the moment. I need an additional link on a path and can’t find any working channels in 11Ghz. I’m going to have to replace the existing 11Ghz link with 2 18Ghz links instead of adding a polarization to the existing 11Ghz. It doubles the cost for a path that the HFT guys have been sitting on for at least 2 years.

I see more PCNs than physical links. Abusing the system to call dibs on towers and frequencies. Most of the PCNs I see are actually renewals, that way they can tie up the coordinated path without starting the construction deadline clock ticking.

I just scan them to see if they are in the same county as our stuff (and they usually are not). But I filter them all to a PCN folder so they aren't clogging up my inbox. You get it if (I think) you are within 150 miles on the same frequency with one of your licenses. -- bp <part {dash} 15 {at} SkylineBroadbandService {dot} com> On 12/15/2014 9:57 AM, Chuck McCown via Af wrote: <blockquote> Sorry Tim...Liz and all the other frequency coordinators here. I know it is not your fault. You get a few licensed links up and pretty soon you are inundated with notices. The one time I complained about a link, nothing happened at all. So, as far as I am concerned, they are a welfare plan designed by the federal government to employ postal workers.

From: That One Guy via Af Sent: Monday, December 15, 2014 10:51 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] licensed prior coordination notifications Since we got our license a few weeks ago we have gotten a ton of these things, some of which are a state away. What is the criteria for sending these things out? What are we supposed to do with them, are we supposed to run a pth calc to see if it looks like it will cause issues? whos responsible for prior notice if it looks like it might? Is it us or the applicant frequency coordinator? -- All parts should go together without forcing. You must remember that the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you.
