Another Spectrum Auction?

You'll never see any auction for AM because the band sucks and doesn't have much bandwidth at all. If you took out the entire AM radio band, you'd have 1.16MHz. TV requires about 6MHz of bandwidth. If anything, they should make that band all digital to allow multiple channels on one frequency with FM quality audio.

I have a Low VHF station that's on channel 2 (54MHz) within a 30 mile range. That thing is about impossible to pick up from my location. Maybe yours was easier due to the fact that it was on the higher end of low VHF (less interference maybe at 76MHz?).
Exactly my point
