[NLRS] Suggestions for FM Simplex Frequencies -Single Op FM Only

[Melvynkc0p at aol.com]

In Rochester we use 146.55 and 146.58 and 146.58 has been used near St.  
Cloud because
when I ran the Tri-State simplex net on 146.58 from a remote base, I had to 
 share the
freq with St.Cloud Thursdays at 8 PM.

Hello NLRS land -

As you are aware the ARRL has  added the Single Operator Three Band and 
FM-Only operating categories to the  January, June, and September VHF contests. 
 Regarding the FM-Only  operating category the League is seeking input via 
their VUAC members as to  suggested FM simplex frequencies.  

The FM calling frequencies of  52.525, 223.5, 446.0 and  1294.5 are allowed 
under the rules with the  standard caveat of not monopolizing them. 146.52 
is specifically not allowed  due to the still-existing Wilderness Protocol 
as referenced at the beginning  of the ARRL Repeater Directory; it’s on p.23 
of the 2012-2013  edition.

If you have some thoughts as to what FM frequencies would be  good for 
NLRS-land, please forward your suggestions along to me so that I can  pass them 
on to the League.  I think 52.525, 223.5, and 446.0 are just  fine for us, 
and perhaps 146.46 .48 or ?   Those who are more tuned  in to the FM 
community may have some suggested simplex frequencies to  avoid?
