Remember the old cordless telephone frequencies between 46-50MHz? Are they being used for anything these days?

The old cordless phone frequencies are being used for old cordless phones.

You would not believe (or maybe you would) some of the things I used to hear on cordless phones. With my outdoor antenna I could hear houses more than three blocks away clearly. I also had a friend that lived in a high-rise apartment building & we "knew" all his neighbors very well. Good times.

46/49 Mhz phones and baby monitors are still in use.

Here in New England we also have some MIL (FM) mixed in there as well
