Was there some estimate as to how many of the 82 or so channels could be in 
use at one place? Like half of them?  Of course, Conges has the right to 
ignore advice, even good advice. It sounds to me like a plan for a lot of 
space that would never be usaed, especially if you go back to the public 
interest origins of the FCC.

Just a tangent, but the local guy who started the public channel was forced 
out after a few years, he thought it should be an educational channel, 
Spanish language and so on.  He lost to the English soap opera faction.
