Abstract: This report is a spectrum resource assessment of the 162–174 MHz band. Included is information on allocation, frequency assignments and agency equipment usage, along with the results of agency interviews. Present spectrum management techniques and associated problems were considered in this report. This band contained 35,275 assignments, as of January 1982, which is approximately one–quarter of all the frequency assignments in the GMF.
