It would be really nice if the FCC hadn't actively tried to kill low power FM and had promoted more low power AM, in conjunction with the FTC or whomever breaking up the big broadcast monopolies. I think mandating AM receivers should come with a push to significantly democratize parts of the bands so that there's more than just the same old stuff across every frequency.

They should auction off the frequencies, and let the winner use them however they see fit. Instead of holding beauty contests.

(Especially, the winner should be allowed to run eg better wifi on them, or better mobile phone data.)
