Re: [WISPA] EBS Licensing
For digital couldn't they just figure out the capacity of the system, provide 5% of that to any and all educational institutions by giving them guaranteed capacity that adds up to the 5%?

Re: [WISPA] EBS Licensing
The EBS band consists of 4 6mhz chunks. 5% is around 1mhz. That's easily achievable I guess. I'm more concerned about rule #1. I can't see Clear providing Educational Services to these schools. I smell a loophole somewhere. -Eric On 1/21/2010 4:17 PM, Brian Webster wrote: For digital couldn't they just figure out the capacity of the system, provide 5% of that to any and all educational institutions by giving them guaranteed capacity that adds up to the 5%?

Re: [WISPA] EBS Licensing
Or the cash equivlent? I can't wait to see what happens in...oh...6 years or so when these school boards renegotiate the 10 year subleases of this spectrum.

Re: [WISPA] EBS Licensing
Heh, I used to be a technology coordinator for a k-12 school district. When I got there they had never used the Internet or email, or anything. After we got a fractional T1 in place (128kbps! WOOT!) I did some inservice training for some teachers. One of them started griping about how the internet was just the CB of the 90s, a place to find porn, where pornographers hung out etc... It took me about 10 minutes to calm down and inform this person and the other staff that it was very hard to use yahoo and unsuspectingly find porn.. and all of the screens faced the center of the room etc, etc, etc.. not a problem. So we all open yahoo and I ask the staffers to find curriculum specific information to help them with their lesson plans. The rabble rouser searched for a very curriculum appropriate black holes... Yeah... *sigh* I almost quit. ryan On Thu, Jan 21, 2010 at 2:34 PM, Jerry Richardson jrichard...@aircloud.com wrote: I've leaned alot.
