Update on TV Whitespaces Comments:
There are currently 44 WISP comments publicized on the FCC Website
supporting the WISPA proposal. Keep up the good work but we still need more!
We need everyone to take 15 minutes out of your busy day to voice your
opinion on the WISPA TV Whitespaces filing. We have attached a template letter
that you can use.
1. Download attachment and customize it. Can be submitted as DOC or PDF.
It is as simple as adding your name and bits of information about your specific
need.
2. Submit to http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=rhroc with the
proceeding numbers 04-186 and 02-380.
Give me a call if you have any questions.
UPDATE: WISP Filing updates are beginning to show up in the FCC database.
Good job and thank you to those who have filed. Go to
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/comment_search/input?z=vd7pb and search for
04-186 to read other WISP comments. More importantly, get your comments filed
pronto. The deadline is September 16, 2010. We need a good showing from the
WISP industry to substantiate the importance of our industry in the decision
making process. This is not about WISPA, it is about your future and the WISP
industry.
All WISPs,
This week, WISPA filed comments on the TV Whitespaces once again. The FCC
is set to make decisions on this crucial topic very soon. It is imperative for
all operators to take a few minutes and file individual comments to the FCC
about Unlicensed use of the TV Whitespaces spectrum this week. Please don’t
procrastinate as the timeline is fairly short.
I have attached a template support letter that Jack Unger has written to
make your support and comment filing easier. Jack, Steve Coran and the FCC
committee has worked hard for several years and especially in our recent
filing. We need to support their hard work efforts and produce a mass support
campaign to give the WISPA filing even more credibility. WISPs need more
spectrum and we need spectrum that will penetrate foliage and other obstacles.
This is our opportunity and essentially our obligation to stand up for our
needs before this crucial decision is made. The WISPA filing can be read at
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7020911589.
Please customize the attached template letter with your company information
and if you want to add additional “local” flavor, it is accepted. The FCC
staff will read each letter and register the support for the WISPA filing to
assist them in making this tough decision. We have received excellent comments
back from the FCC, other trade associations and manufacturers about this filing
and now our membership and industry participants need to stand up and be
counted as well.
Once you have customized the letter, please make a .pdf copy or a .doc file
and upload it at the following website.
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=rhroc. If you choose not to use
the WISPA template letter but want to write your own comments, you can either
follow the previous procedure or use the Express filing method at
http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=nc5cd. The proceeding number is
04-186.
I cannot stress how important this is for each WISP company to do. I hope
to search the filings Monday morning and find 1000 or more new comments
supporting the WISPA filing. Take the time and “git r dun” before your busy
work schedule begins again Monday morning.
Respectfully,
