As a ham radio operator, I have noticed that the 902 MHz band seems to
have vast improvement in conversing via radio over an obstructed path
(trees. leaves, etc.) than at 430 MHz. Unfortunately, the 902 MHz band
is loaded with unlicensed stuff that might interfere...of course, with
satellite detection, obstructions are generally overcome since the
satellite are "overhead" instead of through miles of forest...
