Anyone know which actual FCC licenses and frequencies are in conflict?
Someone might submit to Digg for MORE traffic ;-)
Lindsay,
It looks like the overlap is on a frequency originally licensed to Duncanville,
WQHI705, as opposed to the ones listed under the TRS entry for SWRCC, showing only the Desoto & Cedar Hill sites. This license was reassigned to SWRCC, the combined dispatch entity, on June 10th, 2008. The frequency in dispute appears to be 453.3125 on this license, and also assigned to Plano on
WPIH725.
Coppell's conflict, involving water storage tank level monitoring, looks to be with frequency 453.3625, licensed to SWRCC's Desoto site (
WQHI703) and Coppell (
WPLG617). The DMNews article indicates Coppell is simply going to switch frequencies & upgrade their equipment for about $11k. But that's for three water towers as opposed to hundreds of irrigation control units.
