Rechannelization of the 17.7-19.7 GHz Frequency Band for Fixed Microwave Services
In this document, the Commission adopts rules that rechannelize Fixed Microwave Services (FS) channels in the terrestrial 18 GHz band. The Commission revises the rules in order to reduce the regulatory burden for the 18 GHz band by adding new channel-size options for FS operations along with channelization and emission flexibility for multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs) below 18.3 GHz, thereby facilitating the relocation to spectrum at 17.7-18.3 GHz and 19.3-19.7 GHz. We believe these actions will encourage efficient use of the spectrum by all FS licensees and provide a regulatory environment that will allow MVPDs to provide competitive services while protecting Federal earth stations.

In this document, the Commission seeks comment on the NASA/KSC petition for limited waiver of the Commission's Calling Party Number rules.
Possible Revision or Elimination of Rules
This document invites members of the public to comment on the Federal Communication Commission's (FCC's or Commission's) rules to be reviewed pursuant to section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, as amended (RFA). The purpose of the review is to determine whether Commission rules whose ten-year anniversary dates are in the year 2006, as contained in the Appendix, should be continued without change, amended, or rescinded in order to minimize any significant impact the rules may have on a substantial number of small entities. Upon receipt of comments from the public, the Commission will evaluate those comments and consider whether action should be taken to rescind or amend the relevant rule(s).
Over the Air Reception Devices (Continental Airlines)
This document addresses a Petition for Declaratory Ruling filed by Continental Airlines, Inc. (Continental) pertaining to the installation and use of a Wi-Fi antenna within its lounge at Boston- Logan International Airport (Logan Airport).

The Commission finds that Massport's restrictions on Continental's use of its Wi-Fi antenna are pre-empted by the OTARD rules and it grants Continental's petition.
