If 11M goes up for bid lets each kick in a few bucks to win it back... Jeff NH6IL ************************************************************************ WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Federal Communications Commission took a first step Tuesday for setting the ground rules by which businesses can bid for certain chunks of the airways. The FCC adopted ``generic'' rules for auctioning radio frequencies for a variety of new services, including the next generation of mobile telephone service called personal communications service. The rules will: -- Allow several auctions to be conducted at the same time. -- Require $2,500 as a minimum up-front payment for parties to participate in the auction. -- Set deadlines for payments on winning bid. -- Set aside a portion of the frequencies to be bid on by women, minorities, rural telephone companies and small businesses. FCC Chairman Reed Hundt said the rules set the stage for ``the most important disposition of public property'' since the Oklahoma land rush. More detailed rules for specific services -- notably lucrative personal communications service licenses -- will be decided later this year. Companies obtaining personal communications services licenses will be able to offer consumers the next generation of mobile phone service, in which the number travels with the phone's owner. The FCC is exploring all options -- electronic, oral and paper -- for submitting bids, said Robert Pepper, chief of the FCC's Plans and Policy Office. ------------------------------ Date: 10 Mar 94 00:03:58 GMT From: news.Hawaii.Edu!uhunix3.uhcc.Hawaii.Edu!jherman@ames.arpa Subject: Angus vs Herman (was: Body Parts by J.

All regions are in slow decay. Solar activity forecast: solar activity is expected to be very low to low. Region 7685 (S08W17) has the best chance of C-class flaring. The geomagnetic field has been at active to major storm levels for the past 24 hours at middle latitudes and active to severe storm levels at high latitudes because of a well positioned coronal hole. Geophysical activity forecast: the geomagnetic field is expected to be mostly active at middle latitudes and active to minor storm levels at high latitudes for the entire forecast period.

High Latitudes Active 20/25/30 Minor Storm 40/25/25 Major-Severe Storm 15/15/05 HF propagation conditions were below-normal over most regions. Hardest hit were the high and polar latitude paths, particularly on night-sector transauroral circuits where poor to occasionally near useless propagation existed. Middle latitudes have also observed fair to occasionally poor propagation over the last 24 hours. Conditions are expected to continue below-normal over the next 24 to 48 hours. A gradual improvement in propagation can be expected on and after 11 March.
