Dear Dave, And the downside is that if all the national broadcasts and religious broadcasts desert the HF spectrum, then there will be no risk when regulators let radio noise sources proliferate unchecked. For example, there have been a few articles about a new technology for charging cell phones remotely by using radio wave in the 40 meter range. These will be little radio jammer devices, no matter how the manufacturers may deny it. And the remaining users of he HF spectrum, us hams, will just be out of luck.
