WASHINGTON-The 800 MHz Industry Coalition has asked the Federal Communications Commission to re-process the backlog of applications for 800 MHz licenses because a glitch found in the FCC’s computer software was creating allocation errors.
The FCC released a Grant of Applications list for 800 MHz channels on March 17. The Coalition-which includes the American Mobile Telecommunications Association, the Industrial Telecommunications Association and the Personal Communications Industry Association-asked the FCC to revise the software, re-process the applications and issue a revised list.
