'Bandplan? We don't need no steenkin' bandplan!'

I think bandplans are great, Jim. A bandplan is a dynamic construct, generally
agreed by the band users, which adapts to "market forces".

But FCC doesn't hand out dynamic bandplans; they hand out static band-mandates
which tend to remain unchanged for multiple decades (a geologic age in a hobby
which is charged by regulation to "contribute to the advancement of the radio
art").
