Hi Guys,
I've been playing around with SPLAT! to model a 7-bay Shively we recently installed, as well as a few potential STL paths between various holdings in the group, and am quite pleased with how accurate the models have been.
I recall seeing that the FCC was no longer accepting Longley-Rice analyses for certain filings, but haven't heard much since. The paperwork on this job was already filed by someone else (using FCC-accepted methods to determine the 60 dBu contour), so I'm just asking this out of curiousity, but just what is the FCC's attitude towards Longley-Rice analyses these days? Do they reject them as a whole, or just for broadcast service contour predictions? I've never had to file for a CP or a full license, but I'm sure I will someday.
Thanks in advance, and enjoy the holidays!
