Old Wideband Basic Channel Plan

Ch. 01-04 are Simplex using 100.0 Hz [Universal Access Tone]
Ch. 05-? are usually the State-Wing and Adjacent State Wing channels [Repeaters]
A repeater with 203.5 Hz is a Temp / Tactical Repeater Template:Largetable |Frequency Out || Frequency In || Channel/Name || Notes |- | 148.1500 || 143.9000 || Ch.01 || Primary Repeater also used in Simplex Mode |- | 148.1250 || 143.7500 || Ch.02 || Secondary Repeater also used in Simplex Mode |- | 148.1375 || || Ch.03 || Simplex - Ground Units Only |- | 149.5375 || || Ch.04 || Simplex - Aero Units Only |- |}

Frequencies near the Mexican and Canadian Borders may vary from these Standard 4 Pairs.
