What is spectrum policy? Why do we need it? How is it used?
Spectrum policy is about managing the use of the airwaves by mobile phones, satellites and a huge range of other devices ranging from radio telescopes to garage door openers.

This podcast brings together experts from engineering, economics and policy-making to discuss current issues.
