The FCC should “make as much funding available for as many experiments as possible” as the agency does a series of rural broadband experiments, Competitive Carriers Association President Steve Berry said in a meeting with Jonathan Chambers, chief of the Office of Strategic Planning. Berry said many CCA members submitted informal expressions of interest to take part in the experiment, said an ex parte filing posted Tuesday in docket 10-90 (http://bit.ly/1rcAyGG). An order is circulating that would set aside up to $100 million for such experiments (CD June 30 p3) .
