why do organizations like FCC, etc allocate the bandwidth in the first place through auctioning and stuff like that.
| there are far more potential users than you imagine. everybody has a problem that can be solved with a radio. obviously, people who can pay more and win auctions have a greater need... Quote: |
Can you please tell me the exact specifics of why actually allocation is needed and what happens if it is not allocated.
| tune in to CB some time. without the Iron Thumb of the FCC the whole spectrum would be a monkey house. Quote: |
I also want to know why specific frequency is allocated to specific radio channel. why cant a radio channel use any other frequency.
| so they can make radios that are tuned right for the assigned frequency. so everybody stays within their assigned boundaries and you don't get overlap, and the big sissy hissy fits that come with it. so untrained idiots can't spin the knob and screw everything up. and it keeps the price of radios down if everything from X to Y frequency uses the same RF characteristics. mass production, volume discounts, et al. |
