In addition, parties supporting any modifications to the safe harbor that would be based on proximity to M-LMS sites or other factors should offer proposed rules and specifically explain how such provisions would ensure the same degree of access for Part 15 devices that exists today. E. M-LMS Testing Condition Section 90.353(d) of the Commission's rules requires M-LMS licensees to ``demonstrate through actual field tests that their systems do not cause unacceptable levels of interference to 47 CFR part 15 devices.'' Progeny asserts that implementation of this M-LMS testing requirement is hindered by uncertainty regarding the identity of the affected Part 15 users in the 902-928 MHz band and the absence of

In addition, parties supporting any modifications to the safe harbor that would be based on proximity to M-LMS sites or other factors should offer proposed rules and specifically explain how such provisions would ensure the same degree of access for Part 15 devices that exists today. E. M-LMS Testing Condition Section 90.353(d) of the Commission's rules requires M-LMS licensees to ``demonstrate through actual field tests that their systems do not cause unacceptable levels of interference to 47 CFR part 15 devices.'' Progeny asserts that implementation of this M-LMS testing requirement is hindered by uncertainty regarding the identity of the affected Part 15 users in the 902-928 MHz band and the absence of

In support of this request, Havens asserts that it cannot ``efficiently or effectively'' comply with rule Section 90.353(d) which requires that M-LMS licensees design, construct and field test their systems to minimize adverse effects on Part 15 devices if unlicensed devices operating in the band change as a result of the new rules adopted in the Report and Order.
