Re: [AFMUG] Auction results so far

If you don’t have a PAL, you are GAA, anywhere in the 150 MHz. The only difference is that the upper 50 MHz is GAA only. If you request a frequency in 3650-3700 you would never get denied to protect a PAL operator. But there could be umpteen other GAA operators using that frequency, so I don’

SFG is important even in GAA. If the SAS has to move you to a new channel (a process that isn’t clear what the automated mechanism is for doing that) it MUST move all of the CBSD’s (including CPE-CBSD’s) that are in the same SFG. If the SAS tries to coordinate a move but doesn’t take into ac
