"The cell phone industry says every phone it sells is safe and meets government radiation safety limits. But tests conducted by 20/20 and being made public have found that some of the country’s most popular cell phones can — depending on how they’re held — exceed the radiation limit." From ABC NEWS, 20/20.    Other studies are still ongoing.

* Channels 60-69 will become the 700 MHz Band  700 MHz Band & Auction  ET Docket No. 97-157 60-69  

** March 15, 2001:   The Federal Communications Commission took its first steps to auction airwaves used by television broadcasters on Channels 52 through 59, sought by mobile-phone carriers such as Nextel Communications.   The agency proposed rules to make the TV spectrum available for mobile or other wireless services. It is seeking comment on whether it should help broadcasters relinquish the frequencies. The FCC plans to let broadcasters and phone companies work out agreements to clear the spectrum.

This Spectrum will become available as broadcasters switch to higher-quality digital signals and shut off analog signals. The move will occur when 85 percent of consumers have digital TV receivers, or by 2006, whichever is later.

Almost all wireless mics operate on the same frequencies as TV stations. The TV stations are licensed by the FCC and are running at very high power levels. Virtually all wireless mics are not licensed, and must accept any interference they get from TV stations. For this reason, a wireless mic that works fine in one city, may not work in another.

As new stations go on the air, your wireless mic may become useless. It is important to understand this, because every TV station in the country is getting a new frequency for digital TV broadcasting. Only some of these new transmitters are on the air yet, but in the 2006,  they should all be on the air. Check with all your local TV stations to determine what new channels have been assigned to them for digital broadcasting, and when they expect to be on the air. Most manufacturers can switch your existing wireless mics to different frequencies if needed. It would be wise to determine today if your existing mics will have problems so you can get them changed at your leisure, and not in a panic after they fail.

In 1945, the FCC decided to move the 42-50 Mcs FM radio to 88-106 Mcs  (later 88-108 MHz). 

Because FM broadcasting would be vacating 42-50 Mcs, TV Channel 1 was moved down to 44-50 Mcs in the old FM band.  The TV & FM Radio Allocations which went into effect on February 25, 1946 (mybd), were as follows:
.
New FM radio band:  88-106 Mcs

Channel 1  44 - 50 Mcs
Channel 2  54-60 Mcs 
Channel 3  60-66 Mcs
Channel 4  66-72 Mcs 
Channel 5  76-82 Mcs 
Channel 6  82-88 Mcs
Channels 7-13 as presently assigned

Although several television stations were scheduled to move to to the new Channel 1, no TV stations ever broadcast on 44 - 50 Mcs.  

It could not be used immediately because it was necessary for all existing FM stations to move out of the 42-50 Mcs spectrum to the 88-106 Mcs FM Band.  

When all the FM stations finally did move, the FCC decided to re-allocate 44 - 50 Mcs to other services.   Thus, Channel 1 disappeared.

There was no renumbering of the remaining channels.

AMERICAN PCS/GSM CELL PHONE BAND



PCS/GSM Cell Phone Sites transmit 80 MHz above the Cell Phones, with 400
watts CDMA, and 800 watts TDMA average EIRP (1,640 watts max.)

 CAUTION:  STAY CLEAR OF PCS CELL PHONE SITE ANTENNAS 
 The radiation in an operational system is similar
to that of a MICROWAVE OVEN!  (1)
 Stay clear of antenna radiation when servicing your 
 tower to avoid medical problems,  including  infertility.
 THE SAME APPLIES TO ITFS, MDS, MMDS, XM-RADIO & SIRIUS REPEATERS, and WIRELESS CABLE SITES

(1) The Power Radiated from a PCS Antenna with only one transmitter operating, can legally be 1,640 watts.  This is  328,000 times more Power than the maximum allowable leakage  from a Microwave Oven in the U.S., and 1,640,000 times greater than allowed in Russia ( 0.001 watts ).  Russian workers are required to wear special goggles any time they are temporarily exposed to a microwave radiation level of 1 milliwatt per square centimeter.

Under U.S. Federal guidelines set by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), the maximum allowable leakage from a microwave oven [after the sale] is 5 milliwatts [or 5 thousandths of a watt] per square centimeter [or within the area the size of an aspirin tablet].  

Russian scientists have focused their efforts on the effects of prolonged or repeated exposure to low levels of microwaves. Their studies show that long-term exposure to low levels of microwave energy could result in unpleasant effects that are not attributable to the thermal (heating) effect alone. So, the Russians and other European countries have set their own strict guidelines for microwave safety, concluding that Western safety standards are simply not safe.
