1505.0. "Frequency problems-Beepers?" by RANGER::PITONIAK () Mon Mar 29 1993 11:32

    Yet another question:
    
    There have been some articles concerning the FCC placing beeper
    channels 2.5 khz away from many lower RC channels, making them
    unsafe.
    
    Would you need to be close to a mobile communications transmision
    station to get stepped on, or if you were sufficiently far away, would
    your transmitter effectively over modulate any backgroung transmitions
    close to your frequency.
    
    if this is a problem, i would guess that the AMA would be lobbying
    hard against this proposal, as the cost of just having all the existing
    transmitters and recievers modified to new frequencies would be
    enormous, not to mention the channel crowding.
