[VHFcontesting] A Public notice posted by the FCC

[Howard W3CQH]

I just picked this up from another group!

A Public notice posted by the FCC has a proposal to use 430-448 MHz
for remotely-controlled surveillance robot for emergency use.

For the power proposed and the limited use, I don't believe the device
will cause any significant interference to the ARS.

The real issue for the manufacture is how to stop the ARS from
interfering with the device.   It seems the real possible threat may
be that once the manufacturer has its foot in the door so to say on
440mhz, they may start petitioning for channelization to be done and
assigned to it, citing interference problems that have occurred in
alleged emergency situations.

Have to watch this one closely.
