The cell carriers really want the federal allocation at 3300-3500, which has amateur as secondary, thus the other pending rulemaking that will kill some of my amateur-licensed links (and why I’m loathe to move out of 5900 down to 3400 just to have that band go away and the equipment worthless, plus the antenna gains are lower) Matthew Kaufman On Wed, Apr 1, 2020 at 7:18 PM Dave Phelps <tippenring () gmail com> wrote:
Perhaps I'm being cynical, but thank [deity of choice] that the cell carriers want it made available for this purpose.
