Statement of REC Networks regarding Let The Cities In.

By admin | 6:15 AM EDT, Sun October 27, 2013

While the organization "Let The Cities In" (LTCI) has in the past, quoted REC Networks data as a part of their argument that sub-100 watt LPFM is a "constitutional right", REC is not a party to LTCI's actions with the Department of Justice.

REC feels that if a 50-watt LPFM service can be placed in the current broadcast band environment, it should be done through conventional rulemaking in a manner similar to the current LP-100 service.  The FCC is charged to be the United States' manager of the electromagnetic spectrum and they must balance the public interests as well as our obligations to the overall international community to maintain the spectrum as a whole.

LPFM RF Exposure

In October 2013, the FCC has issued a new RF Exposure Worksheet in the instructions for the LPFM Form 318.  Until we modify the software, these specifications are not supported in myLPFM.   myLPFM will temporarily disabled the environmental functionality until we can modify the software to reflect this. 

If your LPFM is on a tower that supports any non-excluded other RF sources including broadcast radio and TV, then the bottom of your antenna must be a minimum of 22 meters (72 feet) above the ground or roof line.

LPFM Window Extended to November 14 - FCC announces LPFM webinar.

By admin | 1:51 PM EDT, Fri October 18, 2013

The FCC has officially announced an extension of the LPFM filing window until November 14.  

The FCC has also announced a second LPFM webinar which was originally scheduled earlier this month.  The webinar will take place on Thursday October 24 from 1:00~2:30PM EDT.

REC advises all applicants to take their time filing but do not wait until the last minute.  Those who file early will not have an advantage over those who file later in the  window but those who wait until the last minute may experience system congestion.

FCC releases Sixth Order on Reconsideration

By admin | 4:33 PM EDT, Thu October 17, 2013

The Sixth Order on Reconsideration has been issued by the FCC to address the several issues that came up during the previous Report and Order on various subjects:

"New Entrant" Point

The FCC has rejected calls for chapters of larger organizations that have full power broadcast holdings to claim the "new entrant" point.  The FCC states that the new entrant point was adopted to "encourage genuinely new entrants to broadcasting and to foster a more diverse range of community voices".  The FCC also clarified that if an applicant has a triggering event that could change their score or make them ineligible for LPFM, their point total can be reduced or their application can be dmissed based on the reason.

FCC: LPFM Filing Window is now OPEN

By admin | 11:10 AM EDT, Thu October 17, 2013

10/17/2013 11:00AM EDT ---  The FCC has confirmed that the LPFM filing window is now OPEN.  

REC is now recommending that any applicants who are ready to file may do so at this time.  

The FCC has delayed other filing deadlines including the October 1 radio renewal deadline.  

A consortium of LPFM advocates including REC, Prometheus Radio Project and Common Frequency are currently negotiating with the FCC to extend the deadline for filings thus creating an extended filing window.  

Once and if a new date is announced, there will be a FCC public notice. 

But for now, any applications that have been filed since the recovery of the FCC website are valid and in force.
