Kermit: It does specifically target our allocation, albeit not in the initial spectrum group. Look at the bottom of page 9—3.1 GHz-3.550 GHz.

Perhaps some of the other members of the ODV can comment on the present current uses and the impact that this proposal might have impact to military uses. While this Senate bill identifies a segment from 3550-3700 MHz for re-allocation, should the bill change and possibly identify a segment any lower than 3500 MHz then it would impact our allocation at 3300-3500 MHz. This will need to be watched closely. 73, Kermit W9XA _____ From: Doug Rehman <doug@k4ac.com <mailto:doug@k4ac.com> > To: arrl-odv <arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org <mailto:arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> > Sent: Friday, March 4, 2016 8:11 AM Subject: [arrl-odv:25199] 3 GHz Band in Sights of Senate Bill <http://www.commerce.senate.gov/public/_cache/files/8805bde8-408f-4b5e-a5fa-d867eed9d84f/146C427A5D018C04CE7E9C925D398163.mobile-now-act.pdf> The Mobile Now Act is moving through the Senate. It is similar to legislation Rubio had filed in 2014 in that it seeks to make Federal spectrum available for next generation wireless services. While not in the initial proposed spectrum shift, the 3 GHz band is specifically targeted (see bottom of page 9) with a feasibility report on commercial access due 3 years after enactment of the Act.
