Couldn't agree more @thejoekane ! We should be using the SRF better, making it more flexible, and prototyping new spectrum sharing/coexistence technology. The @NSConsortium is ready to help with that goal.
Good news from @ArielleRothNTIA that 2.7 GHz on the way to greater commercial use. Also a great example of how investments in new technology can enhance federal capabilities while also opening up more commercial capacity.
