Julian,
Thank you for posting this. Often things like this are better received coming from a manufacturer than from a lobbying association. I would also like to thank Motorola for their technical expertise as we discussed and responded to the TDWR database RFP with Spectrum Bridge. Guys and gals, This is our opportunity to show the FAA and FCC that we are willing to work together collaboratively to solve the TDWR interference issues and regain the right to manufacture and develop new equipment in the 5.4-5.7 band. Check the TDWR webpage on the WISPA site for more details. I recently started a reference page of FCC ID's which are required to enter your data. Please help me out in making this page more user friendly by contributing any FCC ID's, Manufacturer and Model to me. Also, later today, I expect the WISPA FCC committee is expected to publish our latest FCC TV Whitespaces filing. The committee, Jack Unger and Steve Coran have worked tirelessly on this fine document. I read it last night and it is a great piece of work as we fight for the WISP industry to gain access to the TV Whitespaces spectrum and oppose certain filings that want the spectrum used for other purposes. It will be important for other WISPs to file personal comments and we will appreciate those of you that back the WISPA filing. We will be posting a template comment response that everyone can use or adapt. I think it is best to personalize the comments with real world examples of how each of you can use this spectrum in your own terrain and geography. Once we publish the WISPA filing, read it and then go to http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display?z=yha0w to submit your comments. This will most likely be the last chance to affect the outcome of the FCC decision on this valuable spectrum.

Just to re-emphasise the issue I attach a note from the FCC to manufactures and operators of 5GHz Outdoor Network Equipment. Motorola PTP are working with the FCC to ensure that our equipment continues to detect Radar and avoid causing interference. We also support the requests to avoid operation in the TDWR band and operating at least 30 MHz away from the TDWR operation frequencies when installing devices within 35 km or the line-of-sight of the TDWR sites. WISPA and Spectrumbridge have launched a database where you can voluntarily register your equipment if you are near to one of these radars http://spectrumbridge.com/udia/home.aspx I've also attached a LINKPlanner file and Google Earth kml file with the locations of the TDWR sites so that you can check if any sites are near your location Thanks for your co-operation Regards Julian Motorola Limited Registered Office: Jays Close, Viables Industrial Estate, Basingstoke, Hampshire RG22 4PD Reg.
