  • Executive Summary
    Meeting: Study session Meeting date: September 14, 2020 Written report: 7 Executive summary Title: Comcast franchise renewal update Recommended action: **Due to the COVID-19 emergency declaration, this item is considered essential business and is Categorized as Time-Sensitive** • The report is presented for information only. No action is required. Policy consideration: Is the progress on the franchise renewal in keeping with council expectations? Summary: The city’s current franchise agreement with Comcast expires in January 2021. Upon receipt of Comcast’s request to renew its cable franchise in the city, the city notified Comcast of its intent to conduct informal renewal negotiations in accordance with the federal Cable Act. To prepare for negotiations, the city evaluated Comcast’s past performance under the existing franchise and conducted a needs assessment to determine the future cable-related Public- Educational-Government (PEG) community needs and interests of the city. This is the criteria prescribed by the Cable Act. Following the conclusion of the needs assessment, the city’s cable franchise attorney developed a draft franchise agreement, which the city plans to submit to Comcast for consideration. Financial or budget considerations: The final franchise agreement will determine the franchise fee, based on a percentage of gross revenues derived from cable service and PEG (public- educational-government) capital funding to be received by the city over the next franchise term, expected to be 10 years. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build social capital through community engagement.

  • Citizens' Band (CB) Radio Spectrum Use – Information and Operation
    Citizens’ Band Radio equipment– information and operation Citizens’ Band (CB) radio spectrum use – information and operation Of 364 Guidance Publication date: March 2018 Citizens’ Band Radio equipment– information and operation Contents Section Page 1 Regulatory and equipment information 1 2 Frequently asked questions 5 3 CB operating practice 8 Citizens’ Band Radio equipment– information and operation Section 1 Regulatory and equipment information Citizens’ Band (‘CB’) radio 1.1 Citizens’ Band (‘CB’) radio operates in the 27 MHz band. It is a short-range radio service for both hobby and business use. It is designed to be used without the need for technical qualifications. However, its use must not cause interference to other radio users. Consequently, only radios meeting certain specific requirements may be used. These are described below. How Ofcom authorises the use of CB radio 1.2 Ofcom seeks to reduce regulation, where possible. In 2006, we therefore made exemption regulations1, removing the need for a person to hold a licence to operate CB radio equipment using Angle Modulation (FM/PM). 1.3 In 2014, Ofcom made further exemption regulations2, which permitted the operation of CB radio equipment using two additional modes of Amplitude Modulation (AM) - Double Side Band (DSB) and Single Side Band (SSB). This followed an international agreement3 made in 2011.”. 1.4 CB users share spectrum in a frequency band used by the Ministry of Defence (MOD). CB users must therefore accept incoming interference caused by use of this spectrum by the MOD. 1.5 CB radio equipment must be operated on a 'non-interference’ basis.

  • California Interoperability Field Operations Guide (FOG)
    Cal-IFOG 1 June 2020 Letter of Introduction Since the first version of the California Interoperability Field Operations Guide (Cal-IFOG) was published in 2010, it has become an indispensable tool in day-to-day Public Safety communications and it encourages more efficient and effective use of our limited mutual aid spectrum. The Cal IFOG is a living document that is updated through the feedback provided by every operational area throughout California. Please accept my sincere gratitude for your efforts and I understand that without your input this update would not have been possible. The purpose of the Cal-IFOG is to provide a single source document for the usage guidelines of the statewide and National Interoperability channels in support of the California Statewide Communication Interoperability Plan (CalSCIP). Please keep in mind that the mutual aid frequencies are open to all emergency responders, who are encouraged to program their radios as appropriate and authorized. As always, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules and regulations with regards to licensing and operations should be followed. Every effort was made to ensure the information presented is accurate. In the event you do find an error, please contact either the California Statewide Interoperability Executive Committee (CalSIEC), your Planning Area, or the Statewide Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC), and they will ensure the updates make it into the next version. Thank you to all that contributed to the development of the Cal-IFOG and those dedicated to ensuring that it stays relevant for years to come.

  • Airband Radio Operator Certificate Manual
    Airband Radio Operator Certificate Manual 1- Version: January 2012 About the airband radio operator license Very high frequency (VHF) airband radios are becoming more common as a tool for aircraft pilots to identify the location and intention of other aircraft in their vicinity (for VHF use at non-towered aerodromes see Civil Aviation Advisory Publication 166-1(0) and 166-2(0)).i In some classes of airspace the use of VHF airband radios is mandatory. Using a VHF airband radio requires a license endorsement. To obtain a VHF airband radio operators license you must satisfactorily (80% pass mark) complete both written and practical exams. This manual provides you with information regarding VHF airband radio use in Australia for the satisfactory completion of the written VHF airband radio operator examination. Radio communications in Australian are controlled by the Australian Communications and Media Authority ( www.acma.gov.au ). About the airband Airband radios transmit and receive a radio frequency. Radios are set to transmit and receive on specific frequencies across a band of frequencies. The radio waves that are transmitted and received are base on wavelengths and amplitudes. A cycle is one complete wave action. The frequency, measured in Hertz, is the number of cycles passing a given point in one second. One cycle per second = 1 Hertz (Hz) 1,000 Hz = 1 kilohertz (KHz) 1,000 KHz = 1 megahertz (MHz) 1,000 MHz = 1 gigahertz (GHz) The wavelength is the length of one cycle. The height of the peak or trough from the centreline is called the amplitude ; the greater the amplitude, the stronger the signal.

    VIRGINIA SECTION HAM RADIO NEWS QSL! #17 September 2020 Dave Minyard KM4FOX, Newly- Minted VA ARES PIO ,Gets the Word Out! Dave Minyard KM4FOX has hit the ground running in his new position. VA ARES PIO. Over the past few months, Dave has worked hard on getting the word out. When the new VA Section ARES-VOAD relationship developed, Dave sent out Press Releases and Letter to the Editors to a plethora of news outlets in the Commonwealth. During the first week of August, Dave Williams K7HMP out of Stafford saw the VA ARES-VOAD article in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star and Dave Minyard discovered a Letter to the Editor he wrote in the Brunswick Times. His work shows that there are many ways to get the word out and we must MUST market ourselves in order to protect our self- interests. It’s not enough to hand out wallpaper to each other; we must honor and thank those who will publicize our efforts. So, while you make friends with local politicians and Emergency Managers, take the time, like Wayne Rash N4 HCR of Lynchburg and Manassas and Dwight Rohr W4SPJ of the Covington, VA area to get to know your local newspaper reporters and editors. Jim Merritt KK4IUH and his Powhatan club got to know Laura McFarland at the Powhatan Today and as a result, an article about their Winter Field Day was placed in that paper and the Richmond Times Dispatch. Just a little effort reaps great rewards. Please send me any published articles . Dave Minyard’s LTE: See next page Virginia ARES update provided Aug 3, 2020 To the Editor: Virginia ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Service) is pleased to announce that they have been accepted and are now officially members of the Virginia VOAD (Virginia Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster – https://vavoad.org).
