| CONVERSION FROM CDBS TO LMS - Starting on September 25, most technical applications for commercial FM, noncommercial FM, LPFM, FM translators and FM boosters will convert from CDBS to LMS. This affects Forms 301, 302 (FM), 318, 319, 340, 349 and 350. In the days following the conversion, some REC systems may not function correctly while we develop the functionality necessary to support the filings in LMS. This may have an effect on the following REC systems: FCC.today, FCCdata/Denpahoso, VPIF, MyLPFM, PREMIS, NCE Prelim Search, Spare Callsign List, LPFM Scoreboard and U/D Calculator. More information to follow. |

The FCC has finally made public, the draft of the "technical NPRM" that I had been hearing about. The NPRM (notice of proposed rulemaking) will be considered at the FCC's August 1, 2019 open meeting. Let's take a look at what we may be getting so far...
The Federal Communications Commission has released a draft Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to propose several technical changes to the Low Power FM (LPFM) radio service, many of these changes were originally proposed by REC Networks and were subject to public comment in the past.
As part of a regular policy that has been put into place at the FCC since Ajit Pai has been Chairman, draft releases of agenda items being considered at the upcoming open meeting of the Federal Communications Commission are made public.
REC Networks has filed a Petition for Rulemaking, or in the alternate, Petition for Declaratory Ruling with the Federal Communications Commission to address the issue of smaller communities being denied their first broadcast station because of lack of availability caused by higher powered stations centered around larger urbanized areas.
Greetings from Riverton.
I have been reviewing the various articles, Facebook posts and yes, even QRZ.com for discussion on the 8-meter proposal. Now with that said, here's some answers to some questions, comments and concerns made in the various channels...
Today, the FCC has assigned a rulemaking (RM) number to a Petition for Rulemaking filed by REC Networks, through its founder, Michelle Bradley, KU3N as RM-11843.
This is a difficult personal blog for me to write, but I do feel that it is worth an explanation. Today’s REC is about diversity. We even have the root word “diverse” in our current slogan “a leading advocate for a diverse dial.” When you visit REC’s website or call up by phone, you hear that slogan.
