Abstract
In this First Report and Order in WT Docket No. 96-6, the Commission amends its rules to allow providers of narrowband and broadband Personal Communications Services (PCS), cellular, CMRS Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR), and CMRS paging, CMRS 220 MHz service, and for-profit interconnected business radio services to offer fixed wireless services on their assigned spectrum on a co-primary basis with mobile services. The rule amendments are necessary to respond to the strong support to flexible services show in the initial Notice of Proposed Rule Making.
