Several department heads of the NTC seem to have been deliberately misinforming the commission’s higher-ups when they recommended to the NTC board the granting of a provisional authority to Atlocom Communications Wireless System for an MMDS (multi-point multi-channel distribution system) cable TV license without first observing the due process involved in Atlocom’s application.
