This is NOT worded correctly.  Nobody (well, almost) is going to try to TAKE 
another frequency.  Ask Fred (or others you respect) if they are willing to try 
to squeeze in somewhere tight where they are fairly confident that their signal 
will be giving one of the adjacent stations a "hard time."  I think we've 
already heard the answer.

Or put another way...

Faced with the prospect of "nowhere 'clear' to go," I kinda doubt Fred (or any 
serious op) is going to throw up his/her hands and say, "Well, no room...guess 
I'll try another band."

And THAT is the scenario we all face.
