BROADCASTERS, MIKE-MAKER PUSH FOR MORE FCC TESTING
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
The Shure company and the National Association of Broadcasters (with and assist from the Association of Maximum Service Television) are asking the FCC for more interference testing and are arguing that one way to protect the DTV transition from interference would be not to allow mobile unlicensed devices to operate in the DTV band. The FCC commissioners have said they were inclined to allow the devices to get more use out of the spectrum and promote wireless broadband, but they have also said that preventing interference, and potential impediments, to the DTV transition is also important.
