[SEL] Fw: Broadband and the town of Manas , Virginia, USA, a bit OT

[Michael P. Koryciak]

Wow.I'm shocked that the FCC is even allowing this 'service' to go 
ahead.......EVERY test site I've read about has been shut down due to 
interference problems with other users of the spectrum, which 
CANNOT,given today's technology;be rectified.Unbelieveable.
