Thanks everyone , I have learned a lot from all the responses.
I myself would love to see all the bands packed full with various HD broadcasts but I am sure I am a dreamer as broad cast towers are not inexpensive and getting a license is not a simple task.

Last time I looked all available band licenses were on hold and a low power digital xmitter was at least $100k.

But it would be cool to be able to view a assortment of OTA HD and digital channels rivaling what is avaliable from cable/satellite.

One band could devote itself to just rebroadcasting cable stations that really don't need to be HD quality just Digital quality. I think that at least 4 digital quality cable channels could be broadcast this way. Of course I am clueless how revenue could be generated. And before you mention it I am aware of the scrambled enterprise in the midwest that was buying bandwidth from existing towers and scrambling the broadcast requiring a unique HD receiver available at Walmart.

Daniel,

Interesting about the RC band as I never was very good at flying model airplanes.
