Read the two links on this subject.

Noted our current highest office holder has his fingers in the RF pie 
somewhat by issuing a edict of small sorts.

There is enough (spectrum) room if allocated correctly, (read but not 
frivolously) at the expense of others for next to not much chatter.

Small case in point, would be nice to see a SA displaying how much of a 
increase the Pokemon players have contributed to a higher noise floor 
since everyone are on the air with their cellphones.

Frivolous RF trash keep popping up alla the time it seems.

Double ditto the final comment below.
