SpaceX Meets Rosenworcel and Gomez Aides on 6 GHz Concerns

SpaceX representatives met with aides to FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel and Commissioner Anna Gomez as they made the rounds at the FCC about company concerns over interference from high-power terrestrial operations in the lower and upper 12 GHz band (see 2409260036). “SpaceX’s studies of interference in the upper and lower 12 GHz bands demonstrate that a high-power terrestrial service -- either mobile or fixed -- would devastate the next generation satellite service of Americans who rely on the 10.7-12.7 GHz band for high speed, low latency broadband connectivity,” said a filing posted Friday in docket 22-352. EchoStar disputes those arguments (see 2409050040).
