Thats a sore spot about the Icom R-3 Video rcvr....it STOPS at
2.450Gigs....while the Television and law enforcement community are at 2.450
to 2.500Ghz!! Why Icom did that is crazy. ...

I'm beginning to wonder if the law (FCC regulations or government reguations)
made them do that.

Because I read an archived newsgroup post that said something like

"make no mistake about it. This is by design so that you can not see these
frequencies".

How true that post is or not, I don't know.

But I can kind of imagine it being true.

and I don't really doubt that it's true.

although I can't say for sure.
