Possibly, but at least the 2.4 GHz range (is there a name for this
band? Like Ku band and C bands have name? It's referenced so often,
might as well give it a name) is chopped up into 13 channels in
Europe and 11 in the US. Unless you have a total of twelve (in any
combination) Bluetooth, WiFi devices, wireless controllers, portable
phones (only some portable phones operate at 2.4 GHz, some at 900
MHz, I've seen a couple higher than that, I think), you ought to do
alright. This includes your neighbors' WiFi systems too, if their
range overlaps.
Just try not to operate anything too close to a microwave. They'll
interfere if they're too close. Give it five feet or so, you'll be fine.
