I admit I must be sick because I like to spend time searching the FCC databases; I am on them at least 5 times a week looking for something. I think the FCC site has some of the most complete online database information of any federal agency.
For those not familiar with the specific search area we are talking about, visit https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm. This is a great source of information about who has what, what is legal, who is behind the curve from a market standpoint, who is focusing on what, etc. When I search, I just generally fill in the "Applicant Name" field unless it is one of the big guys, in which case I add a date range to avoid getting hundreds of entries across all types of businesses. But even for guys like us with about $200M in annual wireless broadband sales, a simple "Applicant Name" search is sufficient. That search pulls up 70 grants so it is easy to scroll down while keeping an eye on the frequency range covered by the grant. Also, if you search by frequency, make sure to uncheck the "Exact Match" frequency range box since applications often actually do not follow the exact boundaries of spectrum range you might expect; this is especially true of 5 GHz. I also tell the search to pull up 100 records at a time so I do not have to keep pulling down the next 10 records. It is in San Jose, right? I may pop by but we have no booth. My next actual trip for a show is WiMAX World coming up in Chicago in less than two weeks.

I guess I need more practice. :) Anyway, thanks for the confirmation.
