[Cnet] Wireless spectrum shortage? What spectrum shortage?

There is plenty of wireless spectrum available to meet the demand for wireless data services, but the problem may be that too much of it is in the wrong hands, according to a recent report from Citigroup.

For more than two years, the Federal Communications Commission and CTIA, the wireless industry's lobbying group, have advocated for more wireless spectrum to be made available for auction.

In addition to making more spectrum available through auctions, McAdam also said that the FCC needs to make it easier for wireless operators to acquire spectrum on the secondary market more easily. This could help wireless operators, who need spectrum and have money to fund networks, strike deals with companies that have spectrum but may not be using it.
