OK then….
We managed to keep some links up, but ultimately it relegated 900 to
very low density neighborhoods and links that needed to be -65 or
better at both ends.

I think the point some are missing is the lesson learned from 900Mhz
and smart meters.
While 900Mhz is unlicensed spectrum, a single operator has managed to
take it over in California to the point where no other user has any
chance of using the spectrum for commercial purposes.
By this I mean that PG&E’s deployment of smart meters on every power
meter in the area, and on top of power poles, and other high sites,
has raised the noise floor on this band to unusable levels for high
speed communications.
So by means of overwhelming numbers, PG&E managed to take over 900Mhz
for its own users, stranding the investment of ISPs in this spectrum
in affected markets. I don’t think the commissions initial concept of
unlicensed spectrum was that a single operator would do this, I think
they expected operators by this to use licensed spectrum.
I’d like to see a limit on how many systems a particular entity can
deploy in an unlicensed band. It could be some high number, like 1
million units.
