While not clear from the Waiver Request, it appears that Virginia intends to use 700 MHz spectrum only as a vehicle repeater-to-portable communications link. See Waiver Request at 3. In this regard, we note that Section 90.247 requires the use of mobile channels for mobile repeater applications to extend the range of hand-carried units. 47 C.F.R. § 90.247. Accordingly, we assume that Virginia is not using the base side of the frequency pair for its vehicle repeater transmissions, because it would require a waiver to do so, which it does not request. Further, it is not clear

Mobile Repeaters. A mobile station authorized to operate on a mobile service frequency above 25 MHz generally may be used as a mobile repeater to extend the range of handheld units, but Section 90.247(b) states that for frequencies below 450 MHz in the Industrial/Business pool, only low power frequencies (where power is limited to two watts) may be assigned for use by mobile repeaters and associated hand-held units, when separate frequencies are assigned for that purpose. Previously, this limitation applied only to the former Business and Special Industrial Radio (B/ILT) Services. The restriction was

CTIA contends that harmful interference is being caused to CMRS networks by unauthorized and inappropriately installed signal booster devices, which impacts both commercial and

Such increased airtime usage can affect other licensees, and for this reason frequencycoordinators should evaluate the implications of anyproposed conversions to CMRS. Mobile Repeaters Mobile repeaters are authorizedto retransmit automaticallyon a mobile service frequencycommunications to or from hand carried transmitters. The Commission decided in the 2nd R&Oto delete Section 90.247(b) of the Commission's Rules, which limited Industrial/Business Pool frequenciesbelow 450 MHz for mobile repeaters to onlylow power frequencies (where power is limited to two watts). As a result of the deletion, higher power frequencies may be assigned for use bymobile repeaters and associated hand-held units, when separate frequencies are assigned for that purpose.

Increasing the number of mobile units potentially increases airtime usage, which, as noted above, can impact other licensees.
