774.61875 - TX NAC 293 - RX NAC F7E

recommended landing zone (LZ) channel for 700 Mhz band

per the new NIFOG - national interoperability field operations guide

================

extraneous reading material follows

I am not sure where that recommendation comes from

this is a direct channel - actually it is the base side of an air to ground pair

I assume that this would be the channel that any helo landing at an
emergency scene would use to talk to the LZ manager / controller /
boss / chief / commander on the ground - it probably is not intended
to be the channel that people would use to talk to a helo that has
already landed at a LZ - although it could probably be used for that
also - as long as the ground unit is not using a base station - NIFOG
talks about "ground based stations" as opposed to "base stations" -
actually, maybe they could use a base station - seems the only
limitations on the channel are - no more than 2 watts for aircraft -
no more than 400 meters above terra firma for the aircraft - so LAFD
could put in a bunch of base stations on this freq to maintain comms
with their helos that have landed at a LZ - that would free up one of
their tac channels to handle Towering Inferno 2016
