[arrl-odv:24192] Reply comments in ET Docket 15-26, vehicular radar at 77-81 GHz

Please find attached reply comments in this proceeding, filed just now with the approval of the majority of the Executive Committee. These reply comments strike back at the suggestion of some automotive industry commenters that Amateur Radio operation ought to be suppressed at 77-81 GHz consequent to the adoption of vehicular radar in this band (the latter of which is certain to happen). We call out commenters who failed to cite the persuasive compatibility case that has been made, and challenge the Commission with its Chairman's own words challenging incumbents in the millimeter wave bands to be open to "new frontiers" of spectrum use. These reply comments are filed under my signature as a consequence of Chris's representation of Bosch in the same proceeding. They were drafted through a collaboration between Chris and me, with helpful input from Kay and Dave. I thank the Executive Committee for its review and approval. 73 de Brennan N4QX Brennan T.
