[IRCA] 1610

[AM-DXer@xxxxxxxxx (Patrick Griffith, N0NNK / WPE9HVW)]

I'd be surprised if the FCC ever issues another broadcast license on
1610. This is the most populated TIS frequency in the US with 425
licenses. 530 is second with 339 TIS licenses. Just about any location
in the US that received a broadcast license on 1610 would cause the
displacement of a large number of TIS stations. Even though TIS is a
secondary service I'm sure the FCC is aware of the potential conflicts
this would cause. 

I'm surprised we haven't seen any TIS licenses on 1710. 1710 appears to
be a legal TIS channel and it is included in the FCC TIS database. My 10
year old car radio tunes to 1710.
