@CalgaryLeveen @cfrischer1 @sScCrRaAbBLLeE 4/x) i'd bet RFID would drop their objections to $NN's plan in exchange for licensed status in 907-918 (or 908-917Mhz). Seems like a fair compromise to provide terrestrial backup to GPS in the U.S. for free.

@CalgaryLeveen @cfrischer1 @sScCrRaAbBLLeE 2/x) remember $NN does not want 907-918 MHz. RFID signal is strongest at 915. Europe and China both use ~9 MHz for RFID, with restrictions on power and listen before talk. Why is 11 MHz that includes 915 (9 w/ blockers) not enough for RFID in the US? https://t.co/U9xEpNXW22

@CalgaryLeveen @cfrischer1 @sScCrRaAbBLLeE 1/x) agree- same objectors in different clothing. We need real world tests to prove/disprove interference - $NN has been calling for those tests for 2 years b/c they know the answer. An NPRM can force testing. The real question though is why does RFID need 902-928 MHz?
