Board of Ed

[scollier]

Hey,

While looking in FCC, I noticed some Fairfield County towns, Stratford, Monroe have 450-460mhz listed for Board of Ed. Are they trying to make a countywide BOE system or something?

Thanks,

Negative on the countywide. No need for it. Most BOE licenses are IG (Industrial/Business Pool) licenses and UHF just happens to be very common and fairly easy to get a license for the shared business freqs. A lot of the freqs are used by transportation (buses), some are school maintenance, some are used by whatever form of security some schools have. Some have repeaters, some don't. Some are even used for the athletics departments to coordinate sporting events.

I tried monroe's and only got Alburtis Magnus and an oil co. I'll have to try again. I did try stratford one time and got a school bus.

Thanks,
