Dear EC members,

I would like to request the review of the following draft IEEE 802 LMSC submission by Monday. 20 May 2024, A.O.E, before tentatively asking the EC to consider approval of the submission through a 10-day letter ballot.

Recently, the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) began a consultation “Draft radio frequency migration plan", which asks for public opinions on its proposed spectrum allocation strategies, including 6.425 – 7.125 GHz.

A participant prepared a response with an opinion that asks the administration to consider authorizing the 6.425 – 7.125 GHz band for license-exempt operation.  The submission was reviewed and approved by IEEE 802.18 on 16 May 2024 with the following voting results:  10 Yes, 0 No, 1 Abstain.

Thanks and Regards,
Edward
