In the Detroit area, there's some kind of business operations taking place on 446.150 MHz.  I'm listening to them right now.  I haven't been able to figure out what kind of business it is, but how did they get assigned a ham frequency to operate on?  Isn't there enough business frequencies they could use instead, instead of encroaching on our bands?


We already lost 420-425 MHz to business and public safety.  How much more do they plan to take away from us?



EDIT: Correction on this.  It seems I've tuned an image of a strong business signal on 424.750.  I'm listening on a RadioShack Pro-70 scanner.  But still, the fact remains that they are operating on another frequency that used to be for hams.
