@scottwilsonUSD @cfrischer1 just more of the same. no effort to explain why US RFID/part 15 needs all of lower 900 when the rest of the world functions fine with much less, & ignoring that $NN is meant to be just part of a system of systems.

@scottwilsonUSD @cfrischer1 Womack is seemingly in $WMT's pocket & claiming $NN will interfere with RFID. However, $NN has the proof that they do not interfere with RFID, so presumably Womack will go away.

@JoesAutopen yes - it is on Carr. The same Carr who has surely seen the real world testing that $NN has done, and still submitted a draft NPRM. Is it your belief that the real world data was negative, and Carr chose to purposefully put his head on the chopping block?

SpaceX, Amazon and mobile network operators may compete for $NN’s low-band spectrum, creating an extreme upside case if several parties need the asset.

Shelly’s German Amazon store is back, with its relays again listed as bestsellers and sold directly by Shelly rather than third-party resellers.

@CalgaryLeveen @cfrischer1 @sScCrRaAbBLLeE 5/x) I'd argue that @BrendanCarrFCC is incentivized to move forward quickly now too, unless he wants to allow $WMT to dictate how the FCC does its job through their congressman, whom they no doubt generously support.
