I can give no guidance on scope, but if creating a solution for TVWS allows for 
us to not have to continually change what has been done, to
the ability to wait until guidance comes with say spectrum sharing, new FCC 
rules in the NPRM now, or in the future, then I agree that
my comments are probably looking to solve some issues that we do not have to at 
this point if we address things as solutions to TVWS. 

Sincerely, Nancy
