For some of the devices, the degradation in the detection sensitivity was as much as 60- 70 dB.
In some cases, the degradation was such that the detection threshold could not be measured.
This could impact significantly the ability of the devices to reliably detect TV signals within stations’ service areas."
Yeah, there's the understatement of the century. 70dB is the difference between an excellent signal and nothing at all.
In fringe areas it will be even worse. Anyone who uses a pre-amp will have all their channels blown away by nearby white space devices. |

| That's the point, to get nearly everybody to subscribe to cable or satellite so the corporations (screw the public) can make more dough and the government can then auction off another thirty channels. Anyone who supports WSDs doesn't support free TV. |
