With all the stuff that's flying around the air to allow communications networks to work etc, will there ever be a time when the air is 'saturated' with waves and can't take anymore?

Just wondering.....

While you're wondering about the air, consider this.

If hot air rises, why is it cold at the top of mountains?

I think that it all works by using air to carry the message, rather than stuff "filling" up the space in the air... so it won't be saturated as such.

What may happen is that the range of unique frequencies runs out - but I am sure the boffins will invent something that goes outside the limits we have now.

I hasten to add this is based on no knowledge what-so-ever so I'll gladly rescind the statement!
