Prior to re-banding, so-called "821 channels" -- that is, channels with an output freq of 866.0125 through 868.9875 and a corresponding input freq 45 MHz lower -- were limited to public safety radios. As a result, these freqs cannot be programmed directly into so-called "Privacy Plus" radios, of which the MTX8000 is one.
Since rebanding, the "821 channels" are no longer available for Part 90, period.

you can get an MTX8000 do 821 freqs, involves using that forbidden type of RSS or hex editing your limits in the ODB file of regular MTSX RSS.

How could I hex edit the limit? When I type in the frequency it's using 25khz spacing not 12.5khz thus it rounds down.
