[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
The Federal Communications Commission will conduct another round of testing on unlicensed mobile wireless devices FCC Chairman Kevin Martin hopes to be able to authorize for use in the vacant channels, or so-called white spaces between digital-TV broadcast channels. The FCC doesn't want to waste any time conducting the new tests. It said Friday that anybody who wants a device tested should get it to its Office of Engineering and Technology ASAP.
