What are you missing? The fact that it should be in bands where TV is authorized, and not in a band where it will be subject to random instances of interference from a service that has transmitters at any place at any time.
I wonder how well a waiver would be received that would permit hams to use any frequency in the 406-512 MHz band at 1 watt maximum ERP with a non-interference basis to licensed users of that band segment. Would those licensed users sit still for that? Joe M.
