The FCC has placed the Shortwave Modernization petition online for
\npublic download:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.fcc.gov\/ecfs\/search\/search-filings\/filing\/1042840187330<\/a><\/p>\n

The petition was filed by a coalition of financial services companies
\naffiliated with HF stations operating in the Experimental Radio Service
\n(FCC Part 5).<\/p>\n

They ask the FCC to allocate frequencies for commercial international
\nshortwave data communications. That is not currently permitted except as
\ntemporary experiments.<\/p>\n

The FCC has not yet opened a proceeding for public comment on this
\npetition, but I expect that to happen soon.<\/p>\n

That process assigns the petition a RM-number. It sets a deadline by
\nwhich the public may file comments referencing that number.<\/p>\n
