I was thinking about areas like Paradise California and how a new local/regional radio service may be a benefit. I know about FRS (short range), GMRS (poor in hilly terrain), and 27 MHz CB Radio (Local comms are Ground Wave, that = short range), none of these services work well in hilly or mountainous terrain.
I came to the conclusion that a new public radio service on the VHF Low Band would serve communities like Paradise much better than the ones listed above. Check out my band plan below...
Any ideas about special features for the radios? Public Safety Alerts? Weather Alerts?
