CBRS won’t be in the 2.6-2.7 band.   

To answer the other question - yes, I do think we can make a difference here.   
There are 5 commissioners and the vote currently is two against the NPRM, one 
for the NPRM, and two on the fence.  We only need to sway one of the two.   
When we talk to Representative and Senators about this we have found very few 
who are aware of the issue.  When we discuss it with them so far all have been 
opposed to selling this spectrum exclusively to the cell companies.   

The social media pressure helps to get their attention.
