REC Networks has filed comments in the FCC's inquiry regarding "Need for Speed" which includes the way that broadband providers promote their service speeds as well as set standards for much bandwidth particular applications consume.

REC's comments were related to our experiences with the recent facility move to Prescott Valley and the difficulty we received with Qwest provided service.

In the event of a government shutdown over the weekend, the FCC plans to take down their broadcast database system.

We have heard this will take place on Monday morning.

UPDATE: A new extension has been approved and should be signed by the President on Saturday. This would extend government activities until next Thursday. If it appears that we are looming another shutdown so late in the week, we will take an unscheduled database update to assure that we have the latest information before the government shuts down.

FCCはアメリカの通信規制機関教育ラジオやテレビ（NCE/LPFM）放送局が発表、東北地震と津波の被災者を支援するために資金を調達することは許可されることを宣言している。
教育放送は通常組織放送の操作以外の寄付金を募るに禁止されています。

過去には、FCCはハリケーンカトリーナと2001年9月11日のテロ攻撃とのハイチの地震の例外を作成しています。

RECNETは日本に援助を提供するために資金を調達するための教育放送局を許可するためのFCCの拍手を送っています。

RECNETはJ1ラジオが日本と世界中の視聴者にインターネットラジオ局の放送日本の音楽の演算子です。
