The secondary service would be devoted to a tracking and messaging system for the  X- xcommercial trucking industry. TCI estimates that 300,000 vehicles would use its proposed  x service and that 70 High Frequency (HF) channels, each with a 3 kHz bandwidth, would be  xrequired to serve those vehicles. The frequencies that TCI has requested are those available to  xNmaritime coast stations for facsimile transmission pursuant to Section 80.363(a)(2) of the  xCommission's Rules. According to TCI, the frequencies it has selected are not presently licensed  X-to any U.S. maritime provider.   xTCI requests a waiver of Section 80.207 of the Commission's Rules so that its proposed  x=system may use 2K8D1D and 2K8F1D emission with "modern waveforms" which, TCI asserts,  xwould not cause objectionable interference to other users of the HF radiotelegraphyfacsimile  xbands. TCI proposes that each land station associated with the TCI system be provided with a  xjTCIissued letter acknowledging that the land station may operate under the authority of TCI's  xcoast station license. The land station identifier would consist of the TCI coast station's call sign  x/followed by a unique numeric or alphabetic identifier. The vehicular transceivers would be  xlimited to an effective radiated power of 2 kilowatts, although 100 watts would typically be used,  xand the transceivers' antenna height above ground would be limited to 6.1 meters. The vehicular  xtransceivers would communicate only with the TCI public coast station and would cease  x\operation upon TCI's being given written notice from the Commission that interference was  xbeing caused to marine communications. TCI represents that it will afford priority to marineoriginating communications through "an appropriate electrical or mechanical means."   xThe vehicular transceivers proposed by TCI would be tuned remotely, on command from  xyTCI's proposed Promontory, Utah coast station, thereby to select an optimum frequency under  xvarying propagation conditions. The TCI waiver request was accompanied by an application foru',,,^)e@w[!>hL? '#  hd Heading Flush Lef  xthe proposed Promontory, Utah, public coast station. Mobile Marine Radio (MMR) filed a  xPetition to Dismiss or Deny the TCI application alleging that the TCI system would cause  xinterference to MMR's operations. Globe Wireless (Globe) filed letter comments contending that  xTCI's system should employ Part 90 land mobile frequencies and pointed out conflicts with some  x.of the maritime frequencies selected by TCI. However, Globe supports secondary land mobile  xuse of marine frequencies so long as that use is limited to incumbent public coast station  xlicensees. TCI filed an opposition to the MMR petition and a response to the Globe letter comments.   xInterested parties may file comments on TCI's waiver requests on or before October 15,  xk1998. Parties wishing to file reply comments must do so before October 26, 1998. All filings  xymust reference TCI's requests for waiver, must bear the DA number contained in the caption of  xthis Public Notice and must be filed with the Office of the Secretary, Federal Communications  xzCommission, 1919 M Street, NW, Room 222, Washington, D.C. 20554.
