Frankly, I expected the government to give us back the channel 1 TV frequency, that they took away from us to make television to start with. NOT Wouldnt it be wonderful had someone, anyone, reminded them of that. Maybe the ARRL? Danny Douglas N7DC ex WN5QMX ET2US WA5UKR ET3USA SV0WPP VS6DD

Where was that? 48 to 54 MHz, or somewhere else? The only old reference I remember, from a 1936 Frank Jones Handbook is that 5 meters was 56 to 60 MHz (double of the ancient 10 meters band, before the 300 kHz snip on its top). I am not really sure of how things evolved from the old 5 meters

Isn't Channel 1 not being used for TV because for all practical purposes, it is the 6 meter band that we do have access to? TV Channels actually start with ... Channel 2 ... which is 54 to 60 MHz. I am a bit ahead of the curve for digital TV as we have been watching it for several years now.
