What frequency do you suggest testing my equipment at? The antenna I
believe goes from 131 to 512 mhz. The allocation chart shows nearly every frequency in that range in use for something. Would 140 mhz be ok? Also, I'm not really sure how far the signal is going. Using the line of sight formula with how small the antenna is, I can't really see the signal going beyond the remote area where I live (which is not close to any airport). To test it I'd pretty much have to broadcast on an FM station, get in my car, and drive until the signal isn't picked up, but this too can be a risky venture. grav patrick jankowiak wrote: I hope you are not transmitting on 121 MHz area. That is part of the 108 to 136 MHz aircraft band if I am not mistaken. 121.5 for instance is an emergency frequency and it is monitored. This chart may be helpful to avoid causing interference on sensitive frequencies. http://www.ntia.doc.gov/osmhome/allochrt.html PJ |
