Dave correct me if I'm wrong. Your purpose in life is 2 things (as I read your post).
1. to see that all software can tell if a frequency is already in use. 2. that the auto stations have their own sub-band. Having said that, if you get your way with number 2 you don't really need number 1. (If they are in their sub-band) QOTD (question of the day) If there was a sub-band just for the auto stations why would anyone go in there ? Knowing that they will get QRM'ed. As it is now you *may* get QRM'ed.
