Re: Spectrum allocations - US/Rest 0f World Disparities

Hi Steven,

You bring up an interesting point here. Thing is, the US spectrum allocations are now so far out of sync with the rest the world it's beyond ludicrous.

I am somewhat familiar with the spectrum allocation for various services in the US, 824-892Mhz for AMPS, GSM, TDMA, CDMA in the "standard cellular spectrum, and PCS services are around 1.9Ghz. I am wondering if you can amplify on your statement and clarify for me and others what these disparities are between US spectrum and those of the rest of the world? I know the ITU has been trying to achieve some harmony here, but not with a great deal of success and I know that certain pieces of spectrum have been proposed for worldwide consistency, but have run into roadblocks. Care to amplify on your comments? Thanks in Advance.

Best, Ray
