Fred,
Thanks for the data. Point proven.
How many WISP in that list? None!
>From license quantity 300-7000, no WISPs.
So who will Aux stations in PArt101 benefit?
Only exception might be RADIO DYNAMICS CORPORATION or Comcsearch, that do
licenses for third parties. But even then, a minority on the list.

Subject: Re: [WISPA] 11Ghz Licensing Warning Question
Tom asked,
A relevent question is... What percent of Pre-existing PArt-101 licenses
are owned by who? For example, what percentage of PArt101 licenses are owned by
Sprint or Fiber tower? Surely without those numbers disclosed, we really cant
understand who these auxilary stations really would be helping. If our
competitors own most of the PArt101 licenses, Icant agree that helping our
competitors be more successful will make WISPs more sucessful.
I'd want to see that private independant WISPs and WISP industry own a
significantly large enough portion of the PArt101 band already. Can we get
these specs?
FCC microwave license data is public; you can download the whole database.
I've done this a couple of times, most recently a bit more than a year ago.
(Warning: It's pretty tricky to work with. It's relational, with a ton of
little files, and they just distribute the text files, not the SQL that may
generate the most interesting answers. But if you like hacking in Access, it
can be fun to try.) From that data, not today's, here is the count of the top
