This is from the Form 10. What do you make of it?

The Company now also comes under the jurisdiction of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Since the Technology Group uses radio frequencies to carry information among the users, towers and the ISP, the Group must comply with FCC rules and regulations. A major factor is that the FCC regulates which frequencies may be used and the power transmitted on each frequency.

The user and the tower must be operating on the same frequency in order for a connection to be made. The hardware for the Company's SWOMITM product can be modified to work on any frequency.

A nation-wide frequency, one that could be used by the Company anywhere in the nation, can be acquired from the FCC for a fee, which may be substantial.

The Company is exploring several alternatives for frequency utilization at this time.

In the past, BIFS has always said that they don't need a license because SWOMI uses an unlicensed frequency. Does the above mean they may have discovered that this won't work if they try to expand beyond a very small area? After all, if it's to be "seamless", it needs to use the same frequency all over the country, and needs not to have any interference problems.
