I'm of the camp that says that, in large measure, the only beneficial elements of international telecommunications agreements have been to define an international band plan for the radio spectrum. That was, afterall, the principal reason these treaties were signed, to prevent chaos within the spectrum. (That was also the genesis of the FCC. Too bad it didn't confine itself to that.)
There are at least three sets of treaty texts. The first is the output of the ITU Plenipotentiary conference, which consists of its Constitution and Convention and a number of resolutions, the second are the ITRs (over which we just had the fractious affair in Dubai), and the third are the Radio Regulations. You refer to the 3rd set of text and you clearly are not alone in terms of your thoughts about the ITRs since 55 countries did not sign them. Eliot
