Title: Problem Filing My Comments on 11306 !!
Post by: John Holotko on January 13, 2006, 01:18:51 PM
A very strange thing has happened. I filed my comments in support of RM-11305 yesterday and they appeared on the FCC website a short  time later.  I also filed comments against RM-11306 and thus far my comments have not shown up. I got a "receipt of comments" when i filed but my comments on 11306 still have not appeared.  Has anyone else had this problem ? Should I refile ?? I am sort of puzzled since it took only minutes for my comments on 11305 to appear but my comments on 11306 have not appeared almost a  full day later.

Hi John , It can take up to 24 hours for your comments to appear. I would wait.

I filed mine yesterday and as of 1430 hrs on Friday the 13th (yikes!!) it has not shown up yet....maybe they are getting overloaded by AM'ers.

As long as you got a receipt of comments response from the FCC, I would not try to refile.

All comments are read by people at the FCC before they're posted.   I expect the traffic is really starting to increase on RM-11306. 

Remember, too, that we're coming up on a three day weekend.  Monday is the observance of Martin Luther King, Jr's birthday so that may be adding further to the workload at the FCC.

Be patient.

I just checked again and my comments are now there. There are an additional 25 comments posted from the last time I looked.

Okay, thanks for the helpful advice. I just checked back there and my comments are up along with many others. This morning when I checked there were 55 comments filed on 11306. Now there are 78. I recognided quite a few coming from AM'ers.

At  this point all I can say is, any AM'ers  who  hasn't filed yet then get on there and file. It's as easyas writing a post to this board and doesn;t  take much time at all.

To all those AM'ers who have filed... Great work.
