days before the event ;).
Well, the question is whether or not there is any GSM900 spectrum left that
they can actually assign to you. I have spoken with the respective person
at the Bundesnetzagentur, and at least for Berlin he indicated that there
is absolutely no such free ARFCN that they could assign to me for a test
license.
Instead, he argued we should obtain permission from one of the licensees (i.e.
GSM operators) and then show that permission to the Bundesnetzagentur.
they didn't sound like there's no way we can
get a frequency. but they
told me that we are NOT allowed to connect our network to the normal
telephone network (e.g. via eventphone).
yes, that is obvious.
so, i might talk to the bundesnetzagentur about 26c3
if you want.
Sure, feel free to do it. Talking/asking never hurst. But I think GSM900
is not going to work out. Which leaves us with GSM1800, which in turn means no
BS-11.
