Default FM for the Eddystone EA12?

Very true. Weren't there all sorts problems later on when some of our
emergency services got radio, and some areas used and AM, and some used FM?


Even in the areas where the police used FM they were required to have
one AM channel for compatibility (on VHF). Some of the later police
mobiles were capable of both AM or FM on a channel by channel basis.

As they (don't) say, "Standardisation is next to godliness"!
