Re: [AFMUG] Licensed spectrum for utility companies

[Jesse DuPont]

Are you sure those are PTMP (multiple transmitters)? I know a lot of utilities will use licensed mid-band 900 MHz for 2-way console-to-controller or controller-to-controller audio links (older systems), but I was thinking all the PTMP systems (where each node is a transmitter) was all unlicensed, like for meter reading.

If they really want a licensed band you might look in to 2.5 or 3.5.  There may be additional options.

Any and all advice is greatly appreciate! Thanks, Sean
