This, at first glance, seems to be a direct assault on our 5.9 GHz allocations. That said, I'm not aware of exactly what frequencies HamWAN uses, and how this will affect that emerging technology amateur radio program. Anybody know anything about this? 73; Mike W7VO

Mike:
Please pass this along to the spectrum defense folks at HQ: https://www.fcc.gov/document/chairman-pais-remarks-new-59-ghz-band-proposal
The use of this spectrum in Western Washington is significant, and our EOC-to-EOC amateur radio data infrastructure in that band is growing rapidly.
Thanks, Steve
