I agree in general with calling anti-trust legislation a sham, and I don't like it on principle for markets and resources with no government created or "entangled" scarcities.

The current spectra territories depend on intimate and constant government involvement, and so I find the idea of simply abolishing the FCC intriguing. It seems at first to lead to anarchy of the airwaves, with no reliable reception of any station since all would have the freedom to broadcast willy nilly. Please address this point.

The market will find a solution.

Millions of people talk on cell-phones every day and calls don't overlap.

I'm sure you've heard of XM Radio.
