A spreadsheet presented to the Garland County Quorum Court showed the emergency 911 fund is paying more than $23,000 a month for AT&T's Hosted Solutions service that receives 911 calls and dispatches first responders using internet protocol-based Next Generation 911 technology. https://www.hotsr.com/news/2019/sep/18/county-questions-at-t-s-911-billing-201/ -- Bill Horne (Remove QRM from my email address to write to me directly) ------------------------------ Message-ID: <20190918142510.GA31692@telecom.csail.mit.edu> Date: Wed, 18 Sep 2019 14:25:10 +0000 From: Bill Horne <bill@horneQRM.net> Subject: AT&T achieves renewal of 56 MHz national in millimeter bands The IFT decided to extend a frequency packet in the 7GHz band to AT&T for twenty years, signals that can be used on point-to-point links, but also very suitable for future 5G services. By Nicolas Lucas The Federal Telecommunications Institute (IFT) decided to extend the holding of a 56 MHz package of national coverage in favor of AT&T within the band of 7 Gigahertz (GHz) for twenty years , counted as of January 26, 2020 and provided that this operator accepts, in the remainder of 2019, the general conditions and the amount of the compensation established by the regulator to ratify these spectrum concessions. The decision was taken unanimously from the IFT plenary on August 21, in accordance with file P / IFT / 210819/407, so AT&T has already received notification of this resolution. If the conditions are accepted, the new concession titles will be registered in the IFT public registry of concessions, they could be known in early 2020 and the amounts paid by AT&T for these endorsements will also be a reference for future spectrum concession renewals or future awards via Bidding process in the so-called high or millimeter bands. https://www.eleconomista.com.mx/empresas/ATT-consigue-renovacion-de-56-MHz-nacionales-en-bandas-milimetricas-20190917-0040.html -- Bill Horne (Remove QRM from my email address to write to me directly) ------------------------------ ********************************************* End of telecom Digest Thu, 19 Sep 2019
