I do not want to pay tax on the current part-15 spectrum. I find it
unfair to change the rules half way into a game. How about
opening new part-15 spectrum with those rules. Someone said to give
first right of way to the first operator on a specific channel.
This is a bad idea for the current p-15 spectrum. There should also be
rules on this "new" spectrum preventing one operator from
having a lock on more then 30% of the spectrum in ant given area or we
will see people dumping AP's and doing nothing useful
just like the evil patent holding companies. It should also come with a
6month or less "use it or lose it" tag. If you get a license for
first rights in area XCV then you better get to using it or let someone
else in to use it. Ive got my asbestos skivvies so flame on.

If I read this right it does not specifically mention unlicensed
spectrum but does refer to spectrum not already auctioned which could
mean whitespace. We probably have a chance to spin this to our
advantage unless you guys all would rather just bitch and moan.

Interesting how the 5 Ghz spectrum gets resolved right after they
come up with the taxing idea. And one needs to wonder who came up
with the great idea of taxing unlicensed spectrum. It surely wasn't

Well, it does not surprise me that the government has decided to tax
the
unlicensed spectrum. Today the Bush administration announced a plan
to tax
Wi-Fi and other unlicensed spectrum. It is not clear how they will
do it yet
but the process is in motion. That's the bad news, the good news is
they
reached agreement on the 5.4 GHz spectrum and that should become
available
once equipment gets certified. Check the RCR news site for the full
stories.
Oh well, I suspected that it would not last forever the truly free
use of
the spectrum.
