Bob brings up a good point. The band edge is at 135 kHz and the modulation
sidebands must be down to the specified level at that frequency which limits
the modulation methods. ETSI is considering a revision that will allow a
spectrum mask with some of the modulation components falling outside the
band. However, field testing has indicated that the sideband limits will
have to be lower than originally desired to prevent interference in the
adjacent amateur band.

        Bob:

        You should be aware that there is a UK amateur radio band at 135.7 -
137.8
        kHz. Please keep that in mind both from an interference and from an
immunity
        standpoint. You'll need to check the RA's website for technical
limitations.
        Another resource is the RSGB's website at www.rsgb.org.uk.

        Regards,

        Jack
