Re: 700 MHz?

Not much bandwidth there for a nice high speed internet with multiple users. But then I only operate and repair radios, not make spectrum policy.
Take a modest four 6 MHz TV channels and a 5 Mb/s spectral density and you've a raw 120 Mbs channel. With residential service you can do some pretty amazing oversubscription ratios so 120 Mbs isn't shabby. Let them run 10 watts directional on the subscriber units and say 100 watts omnidirectional on the base and you've got a killer rural solution that would bang through trees and have a pretty large radius. Create a good frequency reuse plan and take a cellular build approach and you have a national solution. Mix in mesh technology for giggles...ooooooooohhhh weeeeeee!

I'd pony up my own money to create a business doing a rural WISP using this spectrum in places I wouldn't even think of doing 2.4 or 5.8. Unfortunately, probably all the spectrum will be auctioned to the big boys
