There were certain regs pertaining to the use of the FHSS radios on 902. You would need to check into the FCC rules re. that.
I understand your point that the antenna and amp limitations pertain to the unlicensed use of these low power FHSS units, we agree there. But there are also specific regs and limitations for ham use of FHSS which would come into play for amateur use. They are available for anyone who wants to go with Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum in amateur operation from the FCC web site. It was just an FYI. 73 Glenn N1GBY -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of n9wys Sent: Monday, November 24, 2008 10:31 AM To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] Re: 900mhz , DTR, 906 to 923.75 MHz FHSS Brian, Why would you think you can't use an amp (or higher power) on 900 MHz as an Amateur? My repeater station is 150W, with added gain via the antenna system; my mobiles are 12W (but there are 35W units available), and my HT's are 4W units...

Chapman What if any precludes the use by licensed amateurs of this setuo (excluding the amplifier the other guy mentioned)? It seems under Part 97 rules we could do this!!!
