The Report and Order upgraded the class of Station WIDL from Channel 221A to 221C3, reallotted Channel 221C3 from Caro to Cass City, Michigan, and denied Czelada’s counterproposal to allot Channel 218C3 at Ubly, Michigan and Channel 297C3 at Cass City, Michigan. The Commission determined that the counterproposal was defective because it requested a channel allotment in the noncommercial educational reserved band, which is prohibited under the Commission’s rules. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Victoria M. McCauley, Media Bureau, (202) 418–2180. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission’s Memorandum Opinion and Order, MM Docket No. 01–33, adopted September 24, 2008, and released September 26, 2008. The Commission denied an application for review filed by Edward Czelada of a Report and Order in this proceeding. See 66 FR 29237 (May 30, 2001). The Commission also denied review of Czelada’s argument that the staff failed to consider the preclusionary effect of the Channel 221 upgrade at Cass City on existing and potential NCE FM service as untimely raised. But even if it were to consider the argument, it was without merit. The preclusionary effect analysis occurs only when the 60 dBu contour of the Channel 221 upgrade proposal overlaps the Grade B contour of a television channel 6 station. No such overlap would occur in this case.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: This document addresses proposed revisions to the Commission’s rules and policies regarding stolen vehicle recovery systems (SVRS) and the use of frequency 173.075 MHz. The Commission takes these actions in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by LoJack Corporation (LoJack), in which LoJack sought to modify the Commission’s rules to accommodate its future narrowband operations on frequency 173.075 MHz, to improve the recovery services its products provide, and to permit other services in addition to SVRS. The Report and Order furthers the public interest by promoting flexibility and allowing SVRS licensees to operate with some relaxed restrictions while ensuring the continued interference protection of incumbent users.

The major decisions in the Report and Order are as follows: • Increases the effective radiated power (ERP) limit for narrowband (12.5 kHz bandwidth or less) base stations from 300 watts to 500 watts. • Increases the power output limit for narrowband (12.5 kHz bandwidth or less) mobile transceivers from 2.5 watts to five watts. • Modifies the duty cycle for base stations from one second every minute to five seconds every minute. • Increases the tracking duty cycle for mobile transceivers from 200 milliseconds every ten seconds to 400 milliseconds every ten seconds and, correspondingly, increases the tracking duty cycle for mobile transceivers that are being tracked actively from 200 milliseconds every second to 400 milliseconds every second. • Increases the uplink duty cycle for mobile transceivers from 1800 milliseconds every 300 seconds to 7200 milliseconds every 300 seconds. • Retains the requirement for TV Channel 7 interference studies and requires that the studies be served upon affected TV Channel 7 stations. • Permits the licensing of mobile transceivers by rule. • Expands the scope of § 90.20(e)(6) to permit the tracking and recovery of lost and stolen cargo and hazardous materials, missing or wanted persons, and individuals at risk or of interest to law enforcement when established boundaries are violated. Also permits mobile transceivers to transmit automatic collision notifications, vehicle fire notifications, and carjacking alerts. • Relaxes the limitation on emissions to permit flexibility in modulation as well as analog and digital signals.
