For the second time, the FCC has eliminated the band used by my
Sennheiser EW series wireless mic. Supposedly there is a sliver of a
band that will allow it to continue working legally, but I haven't
confirmed that. My question is, if I decide to replace it, which band
should I consider? A 516-558, A1 470-516, or G 566-608? I'm inclined
toward none of the above. Other manufacturers have units that work in
other ranges in the US, but who knows when the FCC will sell that part
of the spectrum to the highest bidder?


What band was it (600MHz ?), and is it already eliminated or still just
a proposal ?

you can still use 614 to 616 and 657 to 663 MHz , except technically you need to reduce the power to 20 mW.

The good news about that range is that there will not be any TV trasnsmitters in that range.

I think that means I need to hold where I am. As far as I know, my
system will tune to those frequencies. I'll bet there's an amazing
surplus of wireless mics in countries that haven't sold off the spectrum
they require.
