Hello Doug and Tom -

              One real issue is that there is incumbent use on some of

the spectrum that is targeted that cannot easily be moved.  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.

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.
