$TLLE Teletouch Two-Way Radio Narrow Band Compliance
FCC UHF and VHF Narrowbanding Information

The purpose of the FCC narrowband mandate is to promote more efficient use of the VHF and UHF land mobile radio bands. Currently, these bands are so congested that often there is not enough spectrum available for licensees to expand their existing systems or implement new systems.

Requiring licensees to convert their radio systems to operate on narrower channel bandwidths will allow additional channels to exist within the same spectrum.

The FCC has mandated all Public Safety and Industrial/Business licensees using 25 kHz radio systems to migrate to narrowband 12.5 kHz channels or a technology that achieves equivalent efficiency by January 1, 2013.
