The FCC released a list of experimental applications granted from April 1 to May 1, 2004. Readers concerned out BPL interference may be interested in license WD2XIZ, issued to AT&T Corp. to operate between 1.705 - 80 MHz for testing broadband over power lines in Menlo Park Calif., Florham Park, N.J., Middletown, N.J. and Miami Fla. Boeing was granted a license to use spectrum between 30 and 18,000 MHz for testing with F-18 aircraft. Rockwell Collins was allowed to use frequencies in the UHF TV band - 476-482, 488-494, 752-794 MHz - for the test and development of telecommunications technologies for the military. See the list for experimental license grants outside the broadcast spectrum.

The FCC has released a a list of experimental applications granted from May 1 to June 1, 2003 . Three grants may be of interest to RF Report readers. Hawaiian Electric Company was granted an experimental license WD2XDT to operate in the 1.7 to 30 MHz band for current carrier system tests in Honolulu and Kapolei, Hawa

The FCC list of experimental applications granted between 12/1/05 and 1/1/06 , indicates that the only license grant that could impact broadcasters was that issued to the Boeing Company. The grant to Boeing for WD2XNX allows operation in multiple bands from 800 MHz to 38.44 GHz for antenna testing at a fixed location

The FCC has released a list of experimental licenses granted between Nov. 1, 2003 and Jan. 1, 2004 . Two of the licenses allow operation in the UHF TV band.

The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology released a list of experimental applications granted between 7/1/04 and 8/1/04 . Broadcasters may be interested in one of the grants, license WD2XKG to Shure Incorporated for operation in the 180-186, 192-198, 204-210, 674-680, 764-770, 776-782, 788-794, and 800-806 MHz ban

I only saw one experimental license grant in the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology list of experimental applications granted from 12/1/04 to 1/1/05 that could impact TV broadcast operations. VIASAT was allowed to use frequencies in the 2000-2300 MHz band at an antenna test range. This band includes frequencies

Between June 1, 2006 and July 1, 2006, the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology granted only four experimental licenses. One of the more interesting grants was to Radio Waves Inc., which broadcasters may recognize as a popular manufacturer of ENG central receive antennas. The license issued as WD2XVM allows Radio W
