I know how it works, been in it for years. Some frequencies just carry farther than others across distances, and these are all locked up from public use. These frequencies along with TX power output advantages are only being afforded to the good old boy club and not to the general public.

So, you are not talking about the old HF frequencies that Ham operators use, but just wanted to throw in that dig on the FCC rat holing frequencies. Agreed then.

Even if the FCC agreed to open up a thin slice of one of these bands, the good old boys would scream and holler because they think these bands and frequencies all belong to them, and that no one is allowed to use them unless they submit to the ownership and pay their dues to the club first.
