So right now only the original WISPS that filed for the emergency use can
operate which we are one of those WISPS and we did file for the STA within
10 days and we did notify the other license holders in the state. Thanks
for clarifying Mark.

No, it was a commentary on Potus and his news conference yesterday.   

Being serious now - if the federal government says we are still in an emergency 
near the STA’s expiration date I think we are in a good position to request an 
extension based on conditions being unchanged from the emergency that prompted 
the STA in the first place.

I guess it depends on what “The president of the United States call[ing] the 
shots” decides on when this is over.  

The bigger picture at play is this NPRM: 
https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-360940A1.pdf 


The FCC has an open proceeding to make the STA’s the permanent law of the land. 
  This is one of those ’never let a crisis go to waste’ moments where the FCC 
gets to make the facts on the ground match up with something they want to do 
anyway.

So yes, I do see this as becoming permanent, and the more use we as an industry 
can show it being used responsibly the better.

Some of our 450m’s have seen subtle improvements, others have been more 
dramatic.  Nice to have some breathing room to push AP’s from 20 to 30Mhz

The STA’s for the original applicants were granted with the original letter and 
could be used with notification to the other license holders in the state.  A 
condition of the grant was that you had to make your own application for the 
STA under the company name within 10 days.   Those applications, as best I can

I thought it was the opposite and they were in production but there is such
a huge influx of new requests that it will be forever to get grants because
each has to be looked at by a human

Very useful but is anyone even operational on 5.9 today? It appears the
STA's never got granted from what I read in some other threads on here. I
was told the FCC backed out of issuing the STA's because of some resistance

[AFMUG] 5.9 extension?

2020-04-13 Thread Dev
Talking to Congress folks/WISPA about pushing to see if we could get an 
extension on the 60 day 5.9 spectrum to something more like 6-12 months, there 
seems to be an interest in raising the issue to FCC commissioners. Both 
Senator/WISPA folks want to judge how much interest there would be from the 
community. No promises, but how useful would this be for you all?
