RE: Notice of Ex Parte Filing
WT Docket No. 05-265, Reexamination of Roaming Obligations of Commercial
Mobile Radio Service Providers

Dear Secretary Dortch:

Public Knowledge, on behalf of the Ad Hoc Public Interest Spectrum Coalition (PISC)submits this ex parte filing to urge the Commission to eliminate the in-market or home exception to its mobile roaming rules so that wireless consumers may receive uninterrupted mobile service when they are outside their provider's coverage area, regardless of the spectrum band on which their wireless provider operates. If the Commission insists on terminating the roaming rights of wireless providers at some point in the future, we urge the Commission to protect the roaming rights of wireless providers until the host provider seeking to deny roaming to another carrier's subscribers can meet the burden of demonstrating that eliminating roaming rights will not harm wireless consumers.
