The commission in this In this Report and Order:

• Designate ten 12.5 kHz 450-470 MHz channel pairs for
low power non-voice coordinated use nationwide, with
voice operations allowed on a secondary basis. These
channels will be referred to as "Group B."

Group A, B and C frequencies to 6 watts effective
