I don’t know. I think it is wrong, as an amateur radio operator, I know the radio spectrum is a very limited resource. OK, so is land, but there is a whole buttload of land out there for anyone to buy but the radio spectrum is different. Depending on what frequency you use, each has it’s own characteristics that make it desireable to use. 700 Megacycles is a huge chunk to sell off and I think it is a big mistake. Come to think of it, that’s why we have the push for HDTV, so we can free up the VHF-TV spectrum for sale.
