EWA filed an ex parte letter with the FCC responding to a recent filing by Telephone Connections LLC that requested the FCC not permit the licensing of interstitial channels at 800 MHz until “all licensees that are subject to rebanding and that have entered into a Frequency Reconfiguration or similar agreement have completed all steps contemplated by those agreements.  EWA advised the Commission that it is not necessary nor in the public interest to delay the availability of 800 MHz interstitial channels until after “Frequency Reconfiguration and all steps contemplated by those agreements have been completed”, as they do not affect an incumbent’s replacement channels.
