REPACK RANT
RESIST THE REPACK!
NEW LEGAL FUND BEING TALKED ABOUT TO TO FIGHT THE REPACKING AND CLEARING OF LPTV AND TRANSLATORS FROM THE $16 BILLION OF SPECTRUM THE GOVERNMENT SOLD
FACT: 80% of all spectrum sold in the auction is currently authorized by LPTV & translator licenses or permits
THIS WAS THE LPTV AUCTION !!!!!!
BRING ON THE LEGAL CASES!
"For 5 years we have kept our powder dry, and have not been in the courts. We knew we could not win those cases, and did not even try. But the repack is different. The auction winning bidders need to hear loud and clear that LPTV will NOT be moving when they want to start testing in a PEA, but when we are ready. We will be offering engineering services to counter any of the claims of testing in a PEA, and those companies had better have engineering proof they need us to shut down. If tower crews and equipment are not available, then too bad, we all will have to wait. And we are also putting NAB on notice that if it goes back to Congress for more money and does not include LPTV and translators, well, this is also what legal funds are raised for.
Frak the FCC, frak Congress, frak the primaries, frak the regulatory class, and frak the winning bidders. None of them has helped us at all. So if we can now slow down, even a week here, a month there, a court case 6 months over there, then we will be winning, and making them all suffer monetary damages, as they have and are creating for us. For 5 years they have laughed at us and said we were secondary and to shut up. And now it is time for payback. All of these groups have conspired to work against our family legacy businesses, our
livelihoods, and our viewers.
So whatever we can do to screw with their repacking and deployment plans, good, let's do it. It's time to start making the rigged broadcast system they are all part of pay for what they are doing to us. And it is time to make those members of Congress who do not support us suffer in the midterms. Our viewers are not secondary!
