380-470 MHz Split: What's Down There?

Post by fogster »

I've seen some of the newer XTS5Ks on UHF that go down to the mid-upper 300 MHz range. Inquiring minds want to know: what's down there? I know there's the 'government split' range, but why are radios now going even lower? I've never heard of anything down in that range.
