Bill, I wouldn't expect any dire consequences for the 72 MHZ band. I could see in the near future where 2.4 will become the choice, and expectation for contest flying. However, I can tell you that the folks at Horizon will continue to support their 72mhz range of equipment, and they have no plans to discontinue 72 Mhz gear at this time. I just ordered a 790 RX this morning because I am finishing an all carbon F3B model that I don't want to mess around poking holes in the Nose for. I looked at the flyer for the New JR 12 channel and it will be offered on 72 Mhz. My own thoughts will be that most of the companies will maintain 72 Mhz gear as long as it is a viable business option. My inclination would be to keep selling product as long as people want it. So I guess, We will decide how long 72 Mhz holds on. Best Regards Larry
So now that 2.4 Ghz is emerging in force; how long will we continue to have FCC approved access to the 72MHz band? Bill Swingle Janesville, CA RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
