[nfb-db] Fwd: FCC Extends Deadlines for Comments on the Wireless Hearing Aid Compatibility Requirements

[maurice mines]

Good afternoon everyone, I thought this might be the interest to some on this list? Please do not send replies to the originator of this message because she is not deaf blind and is not on this list. She is a fellow amateur radio operator and thought this might be important to me. Hope this helps?

Sincerely Maurice mines.
