You are transmitting to any one of these frequencies:
1.08ghz
1.12
1.16
1.2

If you have switches of your Tx, and Rx you can choose your freqency out of these.

You can always wait until I get my 2.4 ghz systems instock, they are legal to use in the U.S.

Status: offline 		Hey, Can you do us a favor and set up your receiver/monitor at your flying field and see if you pick up any signals? I'd be interested in knowing if you're picking up any signals: video, audio or alien near the airport.

It's not illegal to receive signals, just to transmit on 1.2 ghz.

Status: offline 		The experiment will not offer any real data. Aviation NAVAIDS does not transmit composite video. So, using the video Rx to look for these neighboring transmissions is not going to help much. Ordinarily you will not detect anything intelligent in the air even if aviation related signals are present.

As far as being "legal" the most effective solution is to earn your ham license. In doing so you will learn what spectrum areas are legal, RF safety, some basic radio theory, and so much more. License info is available at [url]www.arrl.com.[/url]

With the amateur license you will be able to use the 2.4Ghz Video Tx's too. Only models that have FCC Part 15 stickers on them are license free; I have yet to see the imported systems have that approval. So, there is more to the story than has been brought up in these discussions.

Status: offline 		But even w/ a ham licence, you still can't use 1.2GHz, right?
I looked at the frequency chart: [url]www.remote.arrl.org/FanDES/field/regulations/Hambands_color.pdf[/url]
In the lower right corner, it starts at 2.3 GHz

Status: offline 		[QUOTE]But even w/ a ham license, you still can't use 1.2GHz, right? [/quote]Licensed hams can use 1240Mhz to 1300Mhz (23cm band). Healthy RF power levels are available to them too.

I am a bit alarmed at the number of vendors that are not informing their customers of the legal issues of the equipment being purchased. Nearly everything sold for wireless video must be operated by a licensed user. The FCC rules are clear about the steep fines that can be levied against a violator.
