Hi Mike,

Hanging over all this is the uncertain allocation status of the 220 MHz
band. This band does not enjoy the protection of an international
allocation; it is footnoted in for ITU Region 2 only. The 220-222 MHz
segment has already been reallocated; the rest of the band is probably no
less vulnerable. This is probably the reason why the amateur-equipment
manufacturers are no longer supporting 220 MHz. 

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ
