A government agency should not own this in the first place.
I'm about as anti big government as you'll find, but I got to disagree here. A certain level of government is necessary in certain areas. You wouldn't want private companies (or individuals) to own large rivers (like the Mississippi) which everyone around them uses. You wouldn't want a private company to own a certain section of the atmosphere. Some things are just shared by their nature. Spectrum falls into that category.

Excellent point. But I'll claim rights to the space over my property up to a height of 250 ft. Any "owned" part of the spectrum that permeates and/or travels through my space is subject to certain access fees. I'll draft some letters tonight and send them out to the wireless carriers.
