Spectrum Auction Update
The final Channel Reassignment Public Notice was posted by the FCC in April, 2018. Nearly all TV stations have now either gone off the air or move to their new assigned channels, completed in October 2020. Now that the new wireless data services are in operation in most cities on their assigned channels, wireless operation in those channels must cease. Which channels the data services are on varies by city - check the links below for more detailed information about your city.
As we have in the past, we are happy to offer re-blocking service for any eligible affected units, at approximately 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of new. Please consult the re-blocking price list for further details. For any questions about re-blocking or to schedule you service, please contact us at 800-821-1121 or
We will continue to update this page as news from the FCC is published.
