[aprssig] UHF APRS frequency for U.S.

[Jess Haas]

Things don't have to be fractured. I have setup my experimental UHF
digipeater/igate to digipeat local traffic from 2 meters as well as a
heavily filtered set of information from IS. It can also digipeat beacons
and messages onto 2 meters.

 The result is a UHF digipeater that gives you all the functionality of two
meters with decreased traffic and added bandwidth allowing for it to carry
more useful information. Here in southern california 2 meters is full of
traffic but frankly carries very little information.

UHF APRS is considered "special event only".  It is best to not fracture
routine APRS traffic by spreading out over multiple VHF+ frequencies.

Kansas City uses 446.175 for digis... There are a few on air but barely
scratch the surface of the digis on 144.39...

What is the consensus opinion as to what 70cm band (UHF) frequency should
be used for APRS in the U.S.?

I know that Bob Bruninga WB4APR suggests 445.925 MHz on his web site. Is
that well used around the country? Is that frequency protected by the
various amateur radio frequency coordinating bodies around the U.S.?

Thank you.

Bob...
