     Whatever "Cousin Charlie", whoever he is, says, the FCC at present seems
to follow the regulations as written in 47 CFR 5.  I encountered no difficulty
obtaining an experimental licence.  Note, though, that I hold a very limited
authorization; 1W, mobile but only within a 5 mile radius of a fixed point,
and in a band (1.2GhZ) used for both ham and radar applications.  Frequency
coordination was performed to protect other services (primarily DoD radar)
and the FCC found no conflicts.  So they are happy.  The FCC issues only a
few experimental licences per month, but they do issue them.
