Well, they could still pull your certified link, cuz your certified link could be interfering with something else and even if its not intentional, its still interference and the FCC pretty much can do whatever they want. If you are a pain in their ass, they will be a pain in yours. If you play nice, they will very likely play nice as well. We don't need to fear the FCC, they are on our side. They have made spectrum available for our use, and we are using it in such a way that they are even impressed with how fast things are growing and they are considering opening up much much more spectrum to fulfill the market demand. It won't be long before those market demands turn to needs and requirements for the industry to not only survive but to continue to grow and expand.
