Hi Jim,

>>
How many spectrum problems could be solved by reallocation of broadcast video and radio to fiber, and re-broadcast by WISP or satellite when needed?<<

I was struck by the idea of using 2-D drawings to represent 4-D reality. Starting with economics is starting with time/money.

Starting with terrain is starting with 3-D space.

The engineering dimensions of wireless include time, frequency, code, space, power, aggregation. For Regulatory purposes, add National Policy, Security and International Relations.

All interference is local (in the receiver), and the spatial reuse of frequency is key to all.

On the side, I'd note that frequency band allocations last longer than fiber - what is the remaining life of ESCON fiber?

The problem statement might be 2-D, but any one solution is of it's era.
