 It took five years and $750 million, but Sprint Nextel has successfully bumped the broadcast auxiliary services (BAS) of more than 1,000 TV stations out of the 2GHz band coveted by Sprint. The wireless company now will take over that part of the spectrum with the blessing of the Federal Communications Commission. Everyone involved seems quite [...]  The explosion of interest in providing broadband connections throughout the US was evident at the FCC National Broadband Plan & WCAI Summer Summit. The Herndon, Virginia event was sponsored by the Wireless Communications Association International (WCAI), the Northern Virginia Technology Council (NVTC), National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative (NRTC), and DBC. LBA Group CEO Lawrence Behr was a [...]  Lawrence Behr, a prominent telecommunications industry executive, will be a featured speaker this month at the “Summer Summit” of Wireless Communications Association International. Other summit speakers include R. Gerard Salemme, the executive vice president of Clearwire, and Bill Payne, vice president and chief technology officer of Motorola Networks. Behr is founder and chief executive officer of LBA Group Inc. The company offers engineering consultant services and hardware fabrication and distribution worldwide to wireless and communications industry [...]  Like a re-radiating RF signal, positive feedback about a Lawrence Behr Associates engineering job keeps bouncing around cyberspace. Components of LBA Group helped clear the way for an electric power distribution project in New York state, a job that finally wrapped up earlier this year after more than two years of work.

The FCC has released two free map books showing in detail the impact of the digital conversion on every US TV station. Most stations come out winners, with 89% gaining net coverage, and 11% losing. Stations losing coverage area can regain it using several methods, according to the FCC. Options include changing channels or antenna [...] On August 15, 2007 the FCC issued an NRPM to explore the use of FM translators by AM stations. Among the issues to be examined is program origination at night over FM translators by daytime-only AM stations. The proposed rulemaking comes about as a result of a petition by the National Association of [...]  FCC Docket MM93-177 sets out to adjust FCC rules regarding the adjustment and measurement of AM directional antenna arrays. It also seeks to modify the manner in which the reradiation impact of nearby structures is considered. Today, all towers within a fixed distance of AM antenna systems must be evaluated.
