Lines: 13 The other problem with 52 MHz that has caused many hams to give up on it is that it is smack in the middle VHF TV. Interference with TV reception caused hams to look to other frequencies. A large quantity of cheap transmitters operated by people with no understanding of radio couldn't possibly fare any better. By the way many public service (fire department, etc) people on 46 MHz are now giving up on this band because of interference from Radio Control, Intercoms, and cordless phones now also allocated to this band. -Ron
