Incentive Auction Items Slated for October FCC Meeting

The FCC is now slated to take up an order on interservice interference and an order on "when operations commence" following the TV incentive auction, according to the sunshine notice for the Oct. 22 meeting, released Thursday. The FCC also will take up an order relaxing channel-sharing rules for broadcasters participating in the incentive auction and giving them more time to “transition to shared facilities” after the auction. The items are some of the few remaining ones still to be addressed by the FCC as the agency moves toward the incentive auction, slated to start March 29.
