[TVARC] FCC: Reminder - 2 Proceedings Pending Before FCC - Deadline for Your Comments is April 13th

[Anthony Hackenberg]

Hi Members of TVARC Maillist,

The deadline to submit your comments to the FCC on two (2) pending
proceedings before the FCC is fast approaching on April 13, 2019.  Both of
these proposals are important as they could have a profound effect on
amateur radio's future.  So, I again encourage you to review them and
submit your feedback via the FCC's Electronic Comment Filing System
(ECFS).  You can access this system at https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/.

The first proposal (*RM-11828*) is the ARRL's 2018 Technician
Enhancement *Petition
for Rule Making*. It's requesting that the FCC grant new HF frequency
privileges (in the 80, 40 & 15 meter bands) to Technician class licensees.

The second proposal (*RM-11829*) was submitted by Gary A. Hampton (AD0WU),
of Longmont, Colorado. In it, Hampton is asking the FCC to create a new
"Tyro" entry-level license class.

*CAVEAT: *These two i*ndependent*, pending proceedings have official docket
numbers (RM-11828 & RM-11829) that only differ by one (1) digit!; so, be
careful when you enter them into the FCC comment system that you've
specified the correct one that you want to submit comments on.

So, take a break from preparing your IRS tax return😕 and submit your
comments to the FCC on those two pending proceedings.

73,

Tony/K4QR
