This isn't going to happen because the sole reason for "digital" is
channel sharing, increasing revenue per channel on every sector of every
cell. It was sold to the government regulators as a way to increase
capacity without having to increase bandwidth and stop the constant
complaints to FCC from consumers about busy, busy, busy signals on the
old AMPS system. AMPS was overrun, only in the cities of course, as the
industry and FCC grossly underestimated how popular relatively cheap,
(relative to IMTS at $4.50/min) was going to be. The consumer explosion
of cellular caught them all by surprise. So, the government bought it,
just like "global warming". To retreat, now, would be to admit they were
wrong. As with the global warming industry, this admission will never
happen. (HIV also doesn't cause AIDS because all AIDS patients don't
have HIV...and only a fraction of the HIV patients, which has been around
for millions of years, get AIDS. Once a government freight train leaves
the station, noone seems to be willing to pull the brake handles.)
No, the solution to your (our) problem is "resource sharing by force".
Let's say you have a license for the A band covering the whole state of
Iowa. But, you realize that if you build out the system to COVER the
whole state of Iowa, it's going to eat into your profits pretty hard.
You couldn't get a license just to cover Des Moines because the FCC
wanted people in the cornfields to have cellular service. This was fine
during the AMPS era because the corn farmers had installed AMPS phones
running 3 watts to tall towers spaced 20 miles apart. This didn't make
enough money for the corporations so they ignored it and convinced the
FCC to give them more years to build the infrastructure in the
cornfields. Of course, that was decades ago and the infrastructure was
never going to be built where it was less, but not un, profitable. We
wanted to build Des Moines and other high density, high profit areas and
resist building anything that doesn't say Interstate in the
country....exactly where we are, today.
The buildout time is way past. FCC and Congress, greased by CTIA bribes,
doesn't act in the interest of the public. Nothing changes. Service
sucks. At one point, FCC was making noises about re-regulating cellular
by force to improve service. The carriers, ever fearful the public will
take over their controls by law, started making agreements to share
resouces. (Remember when Verizon, Sprint and Alltel all roamed on each
others towers and you never had a dead phone for a while?) This cost the
carriers nothing, actually, but smartass consumers started noticing their
phones roaming onto X or Y in a lot of places where Z sucked and churned
to X in their area. This was also about the time FCC simply ended this
"these are OUR numbers and you can't churn with them" bullshit. So,
churning to X was far less painful. Grease flowed and the FCC stopped
making noises about the re-regulation. So, the carriers shut down the
in-market roaming to save churning and some roaming charges that X was
charging them as Z couldn't reciprocate with equal airtimes. So, now
your phone no longer roams on X or Y in the "dead zones" of Z....it says
NO SERVICE...or more correctly, it hears a faint Z it cannot use and we
reprogrammed it to say you had service in the faint areas you do not...as
everyone here knows.
So, the solution is for a purged FCC to FORCE them ALL to share resources
and take out all this forbidden system nonsense from their little PRL
controllers.....you know....like AMPS phones used to do they couldn't
control.

The FCC has been wrestled away from its stoic engineers, who lived solely
to serve the public with great services in phone and radio and TV, long
ago. Political appointees were put in their place that have no idea what
a transistor looks like, to say nothing of how it operates. Pick any FCC
senior bureaucrat and shove him through the door of your favorite local
TV transmitter building. Tell him to put it on the air. Being a
political lawyer, he can't even find the light switch to say nothing of
the transmitter control sequences.
These political hacks work for the various bribing lobby groups paying
off the politicians, and the politicians, themselves. Nice boys, doing
what they are told, by the politicals being bribed. You get the picture.
They kicked all the engineers out of the building pointing out the
airwaves belonged to the PUBLIC, the reason we licensed them...like we
issue you a license if you meet our requirements to drive on the PUBLIC's
roads....so we can punish you by removing said license if you don't
follow the rules...set by the FCC engineers that made everything work in
the past.
Two things happened. Commercial consumer radio and TV that was forbidden
to be owned by just a priviledged few, those great little AM stations in
Podunk playing what the people wanted, were soaked up by Clear Channel,
who fired them all and installed a satellite link to play the drivel AM
and FM have become. They don't care what you want. They want a
transmitter that plays CONTINUOUS COMMERCIALS, as many as the ADVERTISERS
will tolerate, whether anyone listens to them or not. XM and iPod
smiles. TV also became the toys of a few huge conglomerates who cared
not for good broadcasting. They owned cable companies, too, making sure
noone had real programs on it any more...just SPAM.
Wireless radio services, like "business band radio", wireless telephone
services, did the same thing. Motorola built out trunk systems and the
FCC made it so you had to know someone and really kiss ass to get a
private radio license for your taxi company that DIDN'T involve paying
Motorola for a trunk radio system, which costs thousands, on their shared
trunks. You've all seen the results on cellular. A few ever-growing-
more-monopolistic megacarriers are buying up everything in sight so they
can control the markets. ATT-Cingular? GTE-Cellular One-Verizon? 360
Communications-Bell Atlantic-Alltel? Sound familiar? Big companies with
big money to buy big politicians and bureaucrats to do their bidding.
Now, where have we seen that before??....(c;
These political hacks were told by the politicians to divest the PUBLIC
of its PUBLIC airwaves as soon as possible to try to stave off the
tremendous Federal Debt of spend, spend, spend money we don't have for
stupidity like NASA, constant WARS to keep us in power and money for our
military industry friends, also bribing us. So, the FCC has constant
"auctions", your next paragraph below, SELLING the public's property off
for short-term financing of the Federal bureaucracy to these huge
corporations. The sales went so well, so profitable, so greedy, that we
needed to run the really-wide-frequency-band analog TV stations off most
of the channels so we can SELL them to the highest bidders, like
Qualcomm, Verizon, etc. If you search the FCC website, you can find out
how many frequency bands the Arabs have purchased in the USA! Most
interesting. Of course, if Z OWNS the frequency bands it paid millions
for across the country....it can do WHATEVER THE HELL IT PLEASES with
those bands. They're not PUBLIC airwaves any more. It would be the same
thing if we sold Canada Interstate 95! Canada could put up toll booths
every mile and charge us per minute....just like Verizon?
We haven't lost control of cellular/PCS......YET. But, it's coming.

Hey! You're not supposed to notice this! It's done quietly...with
minimal publicity....between the political FCC hacks and buyers. Stop
making noises! What do you think it is, some conspiracy?
Big communications corporations, like Clear Channel, live to keep YOU and
anyone else interested in starting a broadcasting operation OFF THE AIR!
That's exactly what the FCC's LPFM appeasement program almost noone
outside a church or school, who are no threat to the National Association
of Broadcasters, can get licensed. NO, you can't get a 100W LPFM license
for Podunk and play what Mom & Pop used to play on WPDK-AM 1220 did
before they got bought out by CC! What, are you crazy?! Pirate radio
operators are tracked down FAR MORE STRINGENTLY than any other illegal
group and SQUASHED! They ARE a threat! They play MUSIC!
You'll never be a broadcaster. You might get a job at CC, though...(c;

Too late. The ruling elite (Freemasons, Skull&Bones, Bohemian Grove,
Illuminati) have already beat you to it. They control your MONEY, your
MEDIA, your GOVERNMENT and YOU. Their corporations are running America,
and the rest of the planet, now. Federal Reserve Bank Corporation, Bank
of England (and the other PRIVATELY OWNED AND OPERATED central banks) can
squash any opposition. Meyer Rothchild, one of the Superjews, said,
"Give me control of a country's money and I care not who makes its laws."
Of course, now they don't care how you vote, either. They just rig the
machines and have eliminated those nasty paper trails that might give the
public the truth.

When was the last time you watched a REAL expose of any of this on the
MEDIA? Rupert Murdock News (called FOXnews) never said a word about it
until CITIZENS, and their bloggers on the internet, exposed it.
You just watch....real soon, the bloggers are going to come under some
special copyright law that says all words belong to this conglomerate or
that one.... They've GOT to shut this independent, uncontrollable noise
off! People are beginning to BELIEVE the bloggers!
