Commission's (FCC) Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in the 900

industry throughout this process to highlight the clear and urgent
need for broadband spectrum," stated Morgan
O'Brien, CEO of pdvWireless. "Our comments filed with the
Commission are representative of this cross-industry collaboration.
While much of the NPRM's principal elements reflect PDV's original

look forward to working with the Commission to address. We thank
Chairman Pai, the Commissioners and the industry for their
dedication to unlocking the full potential of prime spectrum for
innovation."
