I'm no expert by any stretch, but I would think that license free or not, no one is allowed to "crap up" a band at a distance like that with a consumer device...  especially if it bleeds over into a regulated/licensed use band.

902-928 MHz is license free in the US and has been filling with gadgets for
a couple of decades, nearly worthless now with the congestion, could be any
one of many millions of devices sold in the US yearly.  If you know the
frequency, monitor with a receiver and see what's there.  I live out in BFE
and have equipment on 434.500 and 915.0 rendered non-functional at times
with near continuous consumer device operation ranging from a few thousand
feet away to a few miles away.  Think of 900 MHz now like CB in the
seventies, times one hundred.
