The Hispanic Technology and Telecommunications Partnership has sent a letter Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin Martin about the potential impact on Hispanics viewers should the FCC allow unlicensed devices in the so-called white spaces in the television spectrum band. HTTP president Manuel Mirabal told Chairman Martin that allowing the devices -- which broadcasters and some of the FCC's own testing suggested could interfere with DTV pictures -- could "undermine the ability of Hispanic television viewers to have access to interference-free over-the air television in the digital era.”
