DISH urges FCC not to shift satellite spectrum holdings

US satellite TV provider DISH Network has urged the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) not to shift its spectrum holdings in the 2GHz band and to approve rules for using satellite spectrum in terrestrial settings, Fierce Wireless reports, citing a regulatory filing. The document, which was published this week, notes that on 24 August Zachary Katz, chief of staff for FCC chairman Julius Genachowski, met with Jeffrey Blum, DISH's senior vice president and deputy general counsel. At the meeting, DISH warned that a mooted ‘5MHz upward shift at 2000MHz-2020MHz would needlessly inject serious regulatory and technical obstacles’ into the company’s plans to reinvent itself as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) carrier
