Spectrum is the life-blood of your business. Without it, your businesses can t grow. So my challenge is a straightforward one. We simply have to redouble our efforts to manage the spectrum resource in ways that make more spectrum available. It s as simple as that.

Now, government has made tremendous strides in recent years to improve spectrum management. And our biggest successes have come when we have used market-oriented methods, such as auctions, to assign spectrum. When we have put our faith in the marketplace to choose the best uses for spectrum. When we have allowed you the flexibility you need to choose the products and services your customers want. And when we have explored new ways to create even greater efficiencies, like band managers with the freedom to lease spectrum to third parties.
