Clip from CBRS section.
16. The Commission declined to adopt other changes proposed by commenters that, rather than streamlining the CBRS rules, would expand or substantially change the character of the service. Specifically, the Commission declined to adopt the proposal to allow CBRS radios to transmit data (other than the sub-audible tone squelch and selective calling that is already permitted) for the purpose of short text messaging. The Commission also declined to adopt proposals to allow FM modulation or to add additional channels for FM modulation, or to narrowband and digitize CBRS channels because 10 kilohertz channels are already relatively spectrally efficient and the alternative modulation techniques would be incompatible with the existing equipment base. Further, the Commission declined to adopt the proposal to transition the service to a band and modulation scheme that is more appropriate for short-range communications. Such changes are beyond the scope of this proceeding, and the Commission concluded that the proponents of such changes do not demonstrate sufficient potential for public benefits that would exceed the associated costs to merit further consideration at this time.

That doc is a long read.
So in the end that part looks like it died.
They did however drop the 155 mile limit.

However, the Commission removed the restriction on long range conversations when sky wave propagation conditions allow such long range conversations. The record does not contain any convincing evidence that the current level of use of sky wave propagation by CBRS operators creates any increase in risk of harmful interference, or presents any other cause for concern.
