[WISPA] E rate

2008-06-05 Thread Chuck McCown - 2
"The OIG reports that the first round of 459 audits pertaining to the 
various universal service fund programs identified approximately $6.2 
million in potential improper payments from the universal service fund that 
it is planning to recover.



An improper payment is defined as any payment that was made to an ineligible 
recipient or for an ineligible service, duplicate payments, payments for 
services not received, and payments that are for the incorrect amount.  The 
greatest amount of the improper payments (over $5.4 million) came from the 
Schools and Libraries Program."



If anyone on this list has been doing SLC/E rate work for schools, make sure 
you have good records and if you have done any sweetheart deals with any of 
the school districts, you may want to retain legal counsel.

Re: [WISPA] 3650 XR3 locations

2008-06-05 Thread Jack Unger
Chuck,

My point was that if the RF module has already received a modular 
certification but with a low-gain antenna then the process process of 
obtaining certification with additional (typically higher-gain outdoor) 
antennas is shortened. Typically in this instance, the original card 
manufacturer has obtained the original modular certification with the 
intent of promoting the sales of the card in a variety of different 
types of certified equipment. In other words, the card manufacturer is 
being "cooperative". If you are paying your certification lab to run the 
same complete series of RF tests on a variety of equipment models that 
use the same modularly-certified card then you may be paying them too 
much. Feel free to hit me up offline so we can compare notes.

 WOW!  I wonder if this type of flexibility carries over to 2.4 and

 that's the response in 3.65, I have to question the reality of FCC

You cannot get anything certified without the schematic, block diagram, and 
other pieces of information that you may not be able to get from the 
manufacturer.  If the manufacturer does not cooperate, there isn't any way a 
WISP can obtain the certification.  Moreover, the RF tests do have to be 
tested due to the prospect of the out of band emissions changing with a 
change of antenna.  I have been through this several times.

Right. The WISP then has the option of sending the AP or CPE to a 
certification lab with several different types of higher-gain outdoor 
antennas to get a new FCC ID number (a new certification) in /*your*/ 
company name. The cost is less than certifying without using the 
already-certified card because many of the RF tests do not need to be 
repeated because they were already done by the original manufacturer. 
The cost to do this depends on the number of antenna types tested but 
could run between $1800 (one or two antennas) to $2800 (more antennas).

That is true only if the original modular radio was tested with an antenna 
of equal or greater gain. You'll want to look at the FCC filings that go 
with that radio; bring up the detail page and look at the test photos. Quite 
often you'll find that these modular radios were only tested with a low-gain 
rubber-duck omni.

Re: [WISPA] Employee Incentives

We pay our customer svc. Employees a spiff on each sale they close.  Our
resi marketing efforts are designed to drive calls to our CSR staff.  We
want our staff to have a real incentive to convert those calls into
sales.  This also gives them an incentive to follow up with people who
call in but don't commit to buy on the first contact.  When call volume
is low, they pick up the sales tickets that are still open and give
those people a call back just to follow up and give them another
opportunity to buy. We can have the coolest technology in the world, but
if we don't sell services we don't grow our business.

Not to burst a bubble but the special "type certification" that is part 
of part-15 was created for unlicensed solutions.  Most license holders 
are responsible for the equipment that is in use. Thus the equipment is 
only certified to meet special regs of the band, unlike unlicensed where 
the majority of the responsibility is on the manufacture.

Well, let's ask! :)

I assume part-15 rules are written quite a bit differently on this 
matter than part-90, but hey, why not ask?

[WISPA] Antenna Quote

2008-06-05 Thread Mike Hammett
This goes out to the vendors on this list.  I'm looking at the following MTI 
antenna.  I would like quotes on these or similar antenna.

MT-484032/NH  MT-484027/NH

How much different performance should I see from a 14 dBi null filled antenna 
vs. a 16.5 dBi regular antenna?

Exactly, with that attitude from the FCC then all of my network is 100% FCC
certified because all the radio's have an FCC number on them, I would just
have to put that number on the outside of the rootenna.

WOW!  I wonder if this type of flexibility carries over to 2.4 and 
5gig.  I know this has been a REALLY contentious question, but if 
that's the response in 3.65, I have to question the reality of FCC 
views in other bands that are NOT licensed.
