REC Networks has a history of providing a method of free speech through electronic means since 1984. REC started as a "soap box" on the telephone and has extended into other entertainment services that were innovative at the time. REC would later use its programming resources to educate and inform the public on media justice, telecommunications and the citizen's right to access the public airwaves. REC's J1 Radio is both a personal interest and is also bringing culture and a music genre that the world does not get too many chances to hear. We are also gearing J1 to be an alternative English language voice in the Tokyo Metropolitan area and the rest of Japan.

The FCC has prevented an FM station from doing a metro "move-in".

The station at issue is KTIA-FM, currently licensed to Boone, IA to Truth Broadcasting. KTIA has filed a minor change application to move the station to Johnston, IA. In response, LPFM station KFMG-LP, licensed to Des Moines Community Radio Foundation filed an informal objection.

The issue at hand is whether the community of license change would result in a preferential arrangement of allotments in comparison with its current service.

REC Networks is pleased to hear the news today that AT&T and Deutsche Telekom have announced that they will no longer be pursuing the proposed merger of AT&T with T-Mobile.

REC was one of a few dozen entities who filed a formal Petition to Deny with the Federal Communications Commission to oppose this merger. In our filing, we pointed out that the merger would create a single Global System for Mobile (GSM) provider which would eliminate handset portability between competing providers. It would have also created a "captive audience" environment for foreign travelers visiting the United States with GSM handsets from their home countries this creating only one possible rate for international roaming services.

REC Networks has released a new version of the LPFM Search Tool for the PC only. The mobile-friendly version will be updated at a later time.

The following updates were made:

SECOND ADJACENT CHANNEL WAIVER PART II

As a result of multiple requests for this functionality, REC has added second adjacent channel waiver functionality to all results, even those that have available channels not needing a second adjacent channel waiver.

We have arrived at REC East safely. We estimate that services impacted during the Facility Move will be restored in the evening on November 14 or during the day on November 15, 2011.

We believe that the network connection here will be stable and we should hopefully have less ongoing downtime due to ISP issues than we had in Prescott Valley at REC West.

REC East is located in Mardela Springs, MD just west of Salisbury on Maryland's eastern shore.

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts, well wishes, prayers and most importantly, your patience during this outage and facility move. Our goal was to make this outage as brief as possible.
