  > They have different characteristics: Propagation, attenuation, power consumption, penetration through walls/building, crosstalk, bandwidth... I mean... I'm not stupid. I realize that. But do these differences rise to the level of constitutional distinction for the purposes of protections under the 1st amendment (and its philosophical underpinnings)? I assert that the answer is unequivocally "no." It may be that these sorts of regulations made sense for the past 100 years, but I don't think that they do for the next.

    I don't know what regulations you have in mind but the frequency spectrum absolutely needs to be managed.
