Is 438.975 for So Cal UHF APRS documented somewhere? I've done web searches several times over the past few years and have never found a UHF freq for So Cal.<br><br>Art N6VIG<br><br><br><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2008 09:02:44 -0800<br>From: ad6nh_lists@dslextreme.com<br>To: aprssig@tapr.org<br>Subject: Re: [aprssig] APRS on UHF?<br><br>This question gets asked every few years. Some areas do have recognized UHF frequencies for APRS (So. Cal is 438.975 for example). The problem is, the UHF band plan varies widely in different parts of the country, and efforts to standardize have always run into road blocks because of local band plan incompatibilities.<br>

<blockquote class="EC_gmail_quote" style="padding-left: 1ex;">A question came to mind today to a couple of us on the way to work... Why hasn't aprs<br>
standardized on UHF? Being on the uhf bands would resolve many of the issues for mobile<br>
installations (ie de-sense to other 2m radios, car stereos, etc)... True the coverage<br>
wouldn't be quite as long distanced, but the uhf bands seem to be a lot less used, and<br>
commercial uhf hardware is available cheaply and in abundance which could be easily<br>
modified for this sort of use...<br>
