Alpha wireless is putting on a cbrs webinar and cambium will be there, 
hopefully the Q&A is similar to the cambium even, it's worth signing up for it

  There is something weird there though - a few WinnForum presentations have 
the GPWZ’s expiring by 2023.   I’m guessing that is when the last of the 
licenses that have GWPZ’s expire even though there are NN licenses that last 
longer.  I’m guessing none of those later expiration date licenses had 
registered locations in 2015.   Hum… actually that makes sense - to have a 
license that expires in 2025 you would have had to get it on or around 2015 and 
would not have had registered locations at that time.

    Mark,

    Do the GPWZ areas expire on April 17th 2020 also?  Or they expire whenever 
the grandfathered NN license expires?

don't have any of those "bodies in the trunk" if they try to call the FCC for 
help with that. We'd also likely be stuck with old equipment in that case.  If 
we use the advantages of the new rules then it's hard to argue that we should 
be protected by the old license, and if we're using old Wimax gear with our old 
license then we'll be less competitive than someone with modern electronics, 
another 100mhz, and 8 or 10 more db in the link budget.


      It’s not theory that you will be protected from CBRS interference if you 
are in the grandfathered wireless protection zones (GWPZ’s).   The SAS is 
REQUIRED to honor the GPWZ and CAN NOT assign a CBSD a frequency between 3650 
and 3700Mhz.   You do not need to contact the FCC if you are getting 
interference from a CBSD - you need to contact the SAS the screwed up and 
granted the request.

      Note this is a little problematic - you can’t get a 3650-3700 frequency 
for a CBSD in a GWPZ even if it’s your own equipment.   There is no current 
mechanism in the SAS to say “It’s my GPWZ and I want to change the equipment 
I’m using to SAS operation and use the same frequency.   You would need to 
unregister the existing 90z equipment and then hope that someone else doesn’t 
get the channel.
