The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) filed a petition for rulemaking last March, to permit Public Safety aircraft voice on secondary trunking channels in the 700 MHz band. Last week a Public Notice was issued requesting comment on this proposed rule.
The petition stems from the State of Maryland's request to deploy air-to-ground voice on 700 MHz narrowband channels. Because it is expected to be only "lightly used," and sharing agreements can be implemented by Statewide Interoperability Executive Committees, NPSTC calls this solution the "most appropriate" for Public Safety.
