Actually, Mitchell doesn't miss much. I rather like him, as I suspect does Chris - it's just that from our perspective he's usually on the wrong side of the issue. I just wish he was less effective. I haven't checked this with Chris, but my reading of the Second R&O is that the Commission did what the Court ordered them to do - so going back to the Court of Appeals would be a waste of time and money. However, I think we will want to petition for reconsideration. There are factual errors in the Second R&O, they relied on a clearly defective online database to conclude that there is a low probability of interference, and I believe the Commission's concession in paragraph 43 gives us a basis for arguing that notching should be mandatory.

But that's not the first point Mr. Lazarus has ever missed, is it? A reporter from Bill Pasternak's bulletin service requested an interview with me about the new (new?) BPL rules but I asked for a rain check on the grounds that the ARRL had not yet determined what our next step will be. 73 - Kay N3KN
