Is there a resource that details who owns what (and where) of the wireless spectrum (ranging from kHz to GHz).

  It's pretty packed: http://www.mobiletrax.com/Portals/mobiletrax/wheeler%20Oct_United_States_Frequency_Allocations_Chart_2003_-_The_Radio_Spectrum.jpg http://www.mobiletrax.com/Portals/mobiletrax/wheeler%20Oct_U... I also heard Lightsquared (national wireless broadband company) is having spectrum issues as well, as their band is right next to GPS, and there is much lobbying going on now, as the govt is trying to buy back some satellite bands and re-purpose them for terrestrial use.

    What does "fixed" mean in the context of that chart?

      Fixed wireless (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_wireless http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_wireless). It's usually point to point transceivers, probably mostly applicable for business and industrial uses.

        What? how did I get down voted twice here for being helpful? Did it just get automatically flagged as a flame war because I responded too fast?
