Dear Friends of Wireless Messaging, Happy New Year to all. May the coming year be full of joy, and happiness for you. The formula that works for me is included in this week's THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK. Continuing our discussion from last week about potential problems with using cellphones onboard aircraft, Jay Thompson did his homework and reported some important details on this issue from the FCC's NPRM (Notice of Proposed Rule Making). Check it out in the LETTERS TO THE EDITOR section.
This is a shortened holiday-edition of the newsletter. | Wayne County, Illinois Weather
A new issue of the Wireless Messaging Newsletter is posted on the web each week. A notification goes out by e-mail to subscribers on most Fridays around noon central US time. The notification message has a link to the actual newsletter on the web. That way it doesn't fill up your incoming e-mail account. There is no charge for subscription and there are no membership restrictions. Readers are a very select group of wireless industry professionals, and include the senior managers of many of the world's major Paging and Wireless Messaging companies. There is an even mix of operations managers, marketing people, and engineers — so I try to include items of interest to all three groups. It's all about staying up-to-date with business trends and technology. I regularly get readers' comments, so this newsletter has become a community forum for the Paging, and Wireless Messaging communities. You are welcome to contribute your ideas and opinions. Unless otherwise requested, all correspondence addressed to me is subject to publication in the newsletter and on my web site. I am very careful to protect the anonymity of those who request it. I spend the whole week searching the Internet for news that I think may be of interest to you — so you won't have to. This newsletter is an aggregator — a service that aggregates news from other news sources. You can help our community by sharing any interesting news that you find.
Editorial Opinion pieces present only the opinions of the author. They do not necessarily reflect the views of any of advertisers or supporters. This newsletter is independent of any trade association.

| LETTERS TO THE EDITOR |
From page 13: [NPRM FCC 13-157] "The most common Airborne Access System in use internationally today consists of an airborne picocell and a network control unit (NCU)." "In effect, an airborne picocell is a low power base station transceiver installed in the aircraft for the purpose of communicating with (and controlling the operations of) mobile handsets or other transmitting electronic devices onboard an aircraft." ". . . the picocell controls the power levels of all transmitting mobile broadband devices operating onboard aircraft, keeping them at or near their minimum output power." "In addition, the NCU raises the noise floor within the cabin to prevent devices from attempting to communicate with terrestrial networks". —— Jay Thompson |

| THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK |
Peace On Earth and Good Will Toward Men (and women)As I pray for peace in the world, I realize the only answer for real and lasting peace is:
I am going to continue to try to do my part in stopping bigotry, hatred, and prejudice, by practicing love and tolerance. I may not be all that I should be, but then I am not what I once was, and with God's help, I am not what I shall become. |
