All my enquiries so far suggest that, despite people predicting congestion, there is very little real evidence.
Any hard facts, anecdotes, opinions and rants are welcome!

I see a lot of congestion & RFI. Some areas are ridiculous with the amount of RF used in the ISM band to the point where it's damned near useless for any distance, especially on Ch 6. The problem is that the users do not understand, why or what is happening, and certainly don't take the time to RTFM or look into what or why it is happening. They then don't take the time or effort to do things like actually coordinate channel use.
Get a spectrum analyzer and look in any downtown area.
