The FCC announced today that our request for a waiver to permit single time-slot TDMA above 30 MHz has been granted, conditioned on the outcome of the rulemaking proceeding in WT Docket No. 12-283 that we expect will result in a permanent rules change having the same effect. This permits the use of Motorola’s MOTOTRBO equipment although the waiver is not limited to a particular type of commercial gear.
