Marcel: interestingly enough, one of Preferred Communication Systems, Inc.'s 
"Improvements" to the Consensus Parties' Proposal now largely adopted by the 
Wireless Telecommunications Bureau would be for Congress to appropriate funds 
to provide incentives for UHF broadcasters to vacate Channels 60, 63-64 and 68 
now thereby freeing up 24 MHz of 700 MHz band spectrum for public safety 
interoperability.  Perhaps this idea could be expanded to include the 700 MHz Guard 
Band spectrum.
