On 1.2Ghz I see no problem, up until a few years ago we had some freq
pairs on 440, but those got taken to put more legacy repeaters on that band.
Now we need the back and of course that is probably not going to happen,
Where are you located perhaps you can monitor one of them and see what
it is doing, of course in some parts of the state the pairs we lost have not
been used yet, but if  you are in South FL I think that they are gone. Some
of them I have listened to did not really sound amateur in operation, but I
guess anymore you can get away with about anything.

2m, FADCA has really never had pairs for data on that spectrum, so you
will have to go to FRC for that. The spectrum we have is as follows
144.91, 144,93, 144.95, 144,97, 144.99, 145.01, 145.03, 145.05 145.07
and 145.09. We may be able to pair one of them with a freq 600 Khz up.
But that is where we are.

What are are you planning to install the system?
