Philadelphia is considering a wireless Internet system that would
blanket the entire city via hundreds of small transmitters.

Would this interfere with ham radio?

Sounds like a possible nice alternative to BPL :-)

===========================

It's not the UHF frequency of the very local mini transmitters which cause
the interference.

It is the broadband signals which come in via the phone wires between
computer and the local telephone exchange. They mostly affect the 160 and 80
meter bands.
