Does anyone have frequency suggestions for drones used by FDs?

Typical drone video downlinks are in either of these two ranges:
2.400-2.483 GHz
5.725-5.825 GHz
900 MHz and 1.3 GHz are also possibilities.

Thanks!
Drone frequencies are pretty much the same across all brands but what would you need these for? I caution you in attempting to stream video downlinks of law enforcement or fire department drones while they are in operation. It’s a violation of federal and state law to interfere with these frequencies and operations.

They're often licensed even if they use a frequency in the ISM Band range so if you live in the USA you can search these ranges in the FCC ULS and limit it to your city to find if there are any. My local department has one in the 2.4 GHz, I got to see it demonstrated at a public event once.
It's often proprietary digital these days to help deal with in-band interference better and sometimes encrypted as well. When I looked up the system on the manufacturer website that was indeed the case here.

1 - Receiving won't cause interference.
2 - It's moot because anything not home made is a proprietary digital format.

I think we are done here.
