The battle over LPFM and possible resulting interference has been off the front page for a while, but it’s simmering on Capitol Hill.
Speaking before the House Committee on Small Business last week, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said the agency is considering an order that would guarantee low-power FM stations will “have reasonable access to limited radio spectrum.”
He said this in the context of describing how the commission is providing opportunity for small businesses in radio with the advent of the LPFM service.
We recently reported that attorneys in a legal session during the NAB Radio Show said the FCC is holding up some major modification applications for full-service FMs if the changes would result in taking lower-power stations off the air — a big change in policy, considering LPFMs are licensed as secondary services.
