Status of OCSO 700 MHz TRS

[HogDriver]

I know we’ve had an OCSO dispatcher on here in the past, maybe he’ll pipe in...What’s the status of the new system? With the current system acting up again, I’m sure your anxious to get it working.

Second question...Why didn’t you jump,on the new Oklahoma Multi-Agency Communication System?

All I know is the FCC is sitting on their emergency STA application for some reason. Those are usually granted in a day or two. It still shows 'pending' as of 11/11/17. Listen to the FB2 frequencies and see if you hear anything. They could be using it anyway.

Monitored this morning and I’m picking up a CC carrier on 772.10625.

The dismissal letter says:
Your application for Special Temporary Authorization (STA), File No. 0007956887 is dismissed for failure to meet the
prerequisites for an STA contained in Section 1.931 of the Commission’s rules. To obtain a regular authorization for
the General Use category frequencies specified in your STA request, file properly frequency coordinated applications
accompanied by concurrence from the Region 34, 700 MHz Regional Planning Committee (RPC). The former State
License channels contained in your STA request are not available for licensing at this time and will not be available until
the Region 34, 700 MHz RPC amends its regional plan to allocate those channels and the amended regional plan is
approved by the Federal Communications Commission after the opportunity for public comment.

They filed an application amendment yesterday.

I predict this application amendment goes down in flames even quicker than the previous one. I was especially amused by the first paragraph in their letter where they basically admit they are incompetent at maintaining the equipment used in their current licensed frequencies and sites. They sorely need to employ a professional communications consultant to run this process as they clearly don't have the needed technical and administrative law experience on the staff.

The FCC liked it this time.

They changed some of the frequencies from what was on the first application.
The current ones are
771.48125
772.10625
772.98125
773.63125

I try not to watch the news much but it seems like the "Oklahoma Standard" is .. shoddiness.

When did the FCC learn to operate at relative light speed for a bureaucratic organization? And all they changed was one frequency???

That's normal for emergency STAs. They are almost always granted within a day. Sometimes they can be granted almost immediately by telephone.

And all they changed was one frequency???

There was more to it than that.
