Because we have a new commission bought by the ILECs and/or Big business
Republicans?

Subject: [WISPA] Martin's call for more radio frequency spectrum
foremergency responders
Snip/
Martin's call for more radio frequency spectrum for emergency responders
came after Senators John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Conrad Burns (R-Mont.)
called for Congress to move forward on legislation that would free up
radio spectrum by requiring television stations to switch from analog to
digital broadcasts. A move to digital television (DTV) would free up
spectrum in the upper 700-MHz radio frequency band for commercial and
public safety uses. The FCC has said it would give 24 MHz of that spectrum
to public safety users and auction off 60 MHz for commercial uses. /snip

I got an idea, why don't they just open it up to wisps all across the
country, let us use ths spectrum for what we are now doing and then in the
event of another disaster, there will already be gear in place to keep
everyone going?
