Frequency Proposal Report Fact Sheet

As part of the 800 MHz Rebanding process, you should at some point (depending upon the Wave you are in), receive a Frequency Proposal Report from the 800MHz Transition Authority. So that you can better understand what information will be provided in this report, the TA has issued the FPR Fact Sheet. Please go to www.rcc.com/rebanding/resources.htm to download a copy of the fact sheet.

Several key points.

* The information that the TA used to come up with your proposed frequencies is the FCC ULS. As we all know, this data can sometimes be inaccurate. It is extremely important that you do a detailed evaluation of these proposed frequencies to ensure that they are comparable frequencies.

* While the FCC has determined that you do not have a choice of specific frequencies, you are entitled to comparable frequencies. Comparable frequencies should have equivalent channel capacity, equivalent signaling capability, baud rate, and access time, coextensive geographic coverage, and finally, equivalent operating costs.

* The FPR Fact Sheet indicates that reconfiguring licensees may utilize qualified experts (like RCC) to review proposed frequencies to help determine if they are comparable.
