Default FCC Provides Spectrum to allow AMT move from 1.7 GHz.

This week's ARRL League Letter http://www2.arrl.org/arrlletter/04/1029/
says:

"The FCC says its action will make room available to shift federal
government aeronautical mobile flight test telemetry (AMT) operations from
the 1.7 GHz band to the 2.3 GHz band by extending the primary allocation
for AMT to include an additional 10 megahertz from 2385 to 2395 MHz.
"Making the additional spectrum available for non-federal AMT will
accommodate the higher data rates needed for non-federal flight testing,"
the FCC said."

If I read this correctly this allows the flight test users to move.
They were claimed to be the reason the US could NOT have Eureka.
Or am I wrong?
