[Scan-DC] Do we know how this impacts public safety radio users?

[Andrew Clegg]

Out of necessity, local public safety is granted a waiver to the 
coordination requirements inside the NRQZ. Some federal public safety users 
are as well.

The NRQZ rules apply only to permanent fixed transmitters. They don't apply 
to mobile, aeronautical, satellites, unlicensed, etc. There are some local 
rules in the immediate vicinity of the observatory that attempt to mitigate 
interference from unlicensed devices.

Speaking of Green Bank, would any SCAN-DC'ers be interested in a VIP tour of 
the observatory, perhaps sometime this summer? It's about a 4.5 hour drive 
from DC. The observatory site (about 2,000 acres) is a fantastic place for 
biking and hiking.
