Well, they got burned with the 27 MHz Children's Band, good buddy, don'cha
know? They are loath to create that on the aviation band with idiots with
"hopped up raddios and linears" on the "good buddy frequency" and on the
pirate "freeband" aviation network.

I don't blame them. The USA citizenship has not played them well in any
"freeband" network they have created. Witness the garbage and obscenities
on channel 19 (et al) of CB. It is worse on the FRS channels. Why would
you expect it to be any better for a "freeband" channel in the aviation
band?

BTW, gang, it is looking better and better for 122.775 as "monitor"
channel...

NO p roblem with that at all. It's a great idea. The question is, why
is the FCC so tight with letting loose one of those 760 channels?
And what would it take to get things moving in the direction of
letting one freq. out of all those loose for that purpose
