:That is 2 strikes against the companies that want to use the white spaces between TV channels. 1 more strike and they may not get another chance.
How does a power failure (ie The equivalent of unplugging the device) equate to it failing to detect other broadcasts and avoiding their frequencies? The article states that the device's power source overheated and shut itself down until it cooled off (at which point it resumed working [ie: Its Circuit breaker reset]). While it was functioning [ie: Was powered up] it worked 100%.
