Monthly FCC meeting was held Feb. 20, 2013. This is a report on the agenda "Improving Wireless Coverage for Consumers Through the Use of Signal Boosters;" and "Increasing the Amount of Spectrum Available for Unlicensed Devices in the 5 GHz Band." Plus a Free Speech Radio News report: "One major phone carrier recently settled a multi-million dollar legal action for failing to disclose the high cost of collect calls placed from prison. When the case was filed 12 years ago, prisoner advocates asked the FCC to take action. Now, more than a decade later, the agency is finally moving forward with reform. FSRN’s Caroline Lewis reports."
