The Commission therefore waived sections 22.970(a) and 90.672(a) of the rules until band reconfiguration is complete in a particular NPSPAC region. In waiving the rules, the Commission determined that, during the interim transition period, non-cellular systems would enjoy interference protection for signal strengths of -85 dBm for portables and -88 dBm for mobiles. While noting that these levels were not universally applauded, the Commission observed that
