FCC Docket 05-72: Public Comments against sale/transfer of VOOM Licenses

[riffjim4069]

Now is the time to file your Public Comments against the pending sale/transfer of Licenses and Authorizations held by Rainbow DBS Company LLC to EchoStar Satellite LLC. Public Comments are due by 28 March 2005, can be filed online and need not be fancy...mine took all of 5 minutes.

Just follow this link http://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/ecfs/upload_v2.cgi and place 05-72 (the docket#) in block 1 Proceeding. In my case, I simply stated my desire to continue receiving VOOM programming, VOOM's commitment & track record of providing HDTV, and VOOM HD LLC's desire to continue operating Rainbow-1 at the 61.5 frequencies. I also reminded the FCC of their past rulings that side on increased competition and consumer choices; this is clearly in the best interest of the public.

Anyway, my confirmation number is '2005324245728' and, once again, the entire process took less than 5 minutes. If you're happy with VOOM, now is the time for action. Let's keep Rainbow-1 right where it belongs! Just think, this time next year Rainbow-1 could be spot beaming HD locals to many of the top markets.

FCC Docket 05-72 attached for your information.

Thanks, I think this thread should be moved to the News and Developments section for greater exposure.

I had commented on this. I pointed out that this might be a violation of the Taft-Hartley and Sherman Anti-Trust Acts.

Should this be linked to the Yahoo Groups Gateway?
Or will that just make someone upset?

Wow, the FCC lawyers will be busy for the next 12 months reviewing all these filing. By then, Charlie will go crazy and give up. Good job and keep filling. Tell your neighbors, friends, pets
