| Abstract: | PCS licensees have the flexibility to provide services that are most valuable to consumers in the same way that companies throughout our economy provide services that consumers demand. This is a sea change in FCC policy and it should be continued. Spectrum flexibility contains two primary components, service flexibility and technical flexibility. With service flexibility, a provider would be allowed to use spectrum to provide any service subject to the technical limitations of the frequency. With technical flexibility, a licensee would be allowed to use any technology to provide its service subject to limitations on interference to other users and regulations to prevent health effects. Both dimensions are important to achieve a competitive telecommunications world |
