I am now licensed for 3.65, but I have to get permission from an earth
station (Andover ME), as I'm just inside it's 150km radius.
The PDF showing the list of earth stations and exclusion zones looks useful,
but is really just the start of a goose chase.
The other ISPs in the states surrounding the earth station either have no 3.65
links registered, or the links fall outside of the zone. Had there been an ISP
nearby that had gone through this, I would have checked with them.
The call signs located at Andover when you go to register a location, or
reference the PDF listing are not in the FCC ULS database. They are apparently
FCC international bureau issued call signs and IB does not have a searchable
online database and did not return my phone call.
I can't find anything in the chamber of commerce business directory for
Andover, the switchboard yellow pages for andover.
The Andover earth station is owned by MCI/Verizon and I get the usually
helpless script followers on the other end of the line, "Sir, we just open up
trouble tickets", or "try calling this number" in really poor english.
Has anyone else been through this? How do I get the information needed to
request an agreement?
Thanks!
