  • For years the music industry has used this band for wireless microphones,and has co-existed with the television industry. now big money wants to cripple the music industry taking up all of this freq. spectrum for the use of wifi, with absolutely no mention to us it will render all the equip in our industry useless, funny how they forgot to mention that, think about that the next time you see a concert, broadway show, symphony performance, or even a newscaster that is wearing a wirless lapel mic.

  • Can the U.S. Government really control air waves over tribal lands? Screw the FCC -- use whatever radio spectrum you please. Show them who really respects the land and the people. That sure isn't the FCC, nor the current Whitehouse. Free the "white"space!

  • AMEN BROTHER

  • Good idea.
