Microwave License Auditing Service
Have you verified the data on your licenses lately?

Comsearch's Microwave License Auditing Service is designed to protect you from the consequences of incomplete or inaccurate FCC licensing information. This service verifies the technical information on your FCC license with information in Comsearch's databases. Our comprehensive proprietary databases identify current and proposed microwave and earth station sites, private mobile transmitters, paging and cellular sites, and other facilities and structures. Because we continue to verify, update and manage our extensive databases daily, we have amassed one of the largest, most accurate private collections of engineering data in the telecommunications industry. Our databases are used in conjunction with sophisticated computer-based prediction models, programs, and tools to help our clients' design, engineer, select, and maintain cost effective and interference-free telecommunications solutions to their specifications.

What are the consequences?

It is imperative that the technical information on a FCC license be accurate. Surprisingly, the FCC data on some licenses is often incomplete or inaccurate. Worse yet, an operating microwave system that you think may be licensed may not even be licensed at all. Because some coordination agencies rely solely on the FCC's ULS database for planning new systems, if facilities are missing or in error, actual interference could result after the coordination process. Lastly, operating without a valid FCC license can result in a fine of up to $10,000 per occurrence.

Take the steps to ensure your facilities are properly licensed.

Comsearch eliminates interference threats through complete license auditing services utilizing our proprietary databases that include data from over 5,000 clients in addition to the FCC data. These databases include microwave, satellite earth station, and multiple address systems (MAS), providing the most comprehensive snapshot of the interference environment around any given system.

Comsearch's license auditing service verifies the technical information on your FCC license. Our service provides:

• Comparison of the technical information on your FCC license to the information in Comsearch's database.
  
• A copy of your FCC license with the discrepancies highlighted.
  
• Comparison of FCC license data and Comsearch's data with your dataset, if provided.
  

For the most comprehensive analysis, Comsearch can provide a detailed field audit of every station. A field audit would verify that the FCC license represents the actual operating parameters. Using differential GPS, a field audit technician can verify the coordinates to the level of accuracy required by the FCC and can verify the antenna height, antenna size, equipment make and model, and frequency. For example, a recent field audit conducted for one of our major customers uncovered several instances where the wrong equipment and frequencies were installed and in operation.
