  • to assign 220 MHz call sign WPWY753 from Rush to AAR. In the application, AAR requests that the Commission waive four of its rules to allow AAR to use the frequencies to develop a private, non-commercial system for the freight railroad industry to operate switching locomotives in railroad yards using radio control links. Specifically, AAR seeks a waiver of sections 90.713(a) and 90.717(b) of the Commission's rules, both of which restrict the spectrum covered by the License to commercial use only. AAR also seeks a waiver of section 90.715(a), which designates one frequency in each 220 MHz channel pair as the "base station" frequency and the other as the "mobile station" frequency. Finally, AAR requests that the Commission waive rule section

Part 90 220 MHz Replations (5s 90.701 - 90.7711 l Restrictions on assignments of authorization and transfers of control (4 90.709) should be eliminated.Licensees of initial 220 MHz licenses are not permitted to assign or transfer unconstructed stations, which is inconsistent with the treatment of 800 MHz SMR incumbents. l Criteria for entry for a Phase I applicant (5 90.713) should be streamlined. The existing requirement for an initial 220 MHz applicant to provide a certification that it would meet certain construction benchmarks is no longer necessary because the initial 220 MHz application process is complete. l Permissible operation limitations (5 90.733) should be eliminated. These arbitrary restrictions limit the use of 220 MHz systems, needlessly requiring licensees and applicants
