In article t, w4nti@get says... SB QST @ ARL $ARLB013 ARLB013 FCC okays RF identification tags at 433.5 to 434.5 MHz It's use it or loose it. I've turned on the rig several time during commute and during the day when I get a chance. The 70cm band in RI/SE MA is dead. Throw a call out, hear nothing back. 2M is pretty much the same. It's just too bad. IIRC, 434 MHz is in the middle of an ATV channel, not the repeater sub band. Part of me would be willing to concede (on a 2nd or 3rd basis) 434 for a horse trade deal to avoid BPL. But there is also the aspect of the camel's nose getting inside the tent.... (I also realize that the RFID people are not the same as the BPL people). There are airport radars at around 445MHz that look for wind shear. The government IIRC did go out of their way to avoid interference to the ham repeaters in the area at each such equipped airport. |
