Come to think of it, isn't the reason the ARRL has really gone to bat on
this topic (aside from the nuisance it poses), is because the FCC
recently granted larger preemption on the part of certain satellite TV
services?
Couldn't the the same "they can operate elsewhere" or "go mobile"
arguments be extended to these TV services? Hmmm....
