 +==== Arizona Repeater Owners Frequency Coordination Committee ====
 +
 +  * [[https://www.azfreqcoord.org/bp/bp.htm|Band Plan Page]]
 +
 +The Frequency Coordination Committee of the Amateur Radio Council of Arizona is a group of volunteer amateur radio operators who work to provide coordination services to the amateur radio community in Arizona. Coordination is performed for VHF and UHF frequencies to be used for repeater, digital, and point to point operations. This service is available for amateur radio frequencies from 29 MHz and up.
 +
 +Arizona adopted the ARRL VHF band plan with a few minor changes and additions. [[https://www.azfreqcoord.org/bp/144bp.pdf|This listing]] is provided to assist in identifying specific sub-band usage. When considering frequencies for use in conjunction with a proposed repeater, be certain that both the input and output fall within sub-bands authorized for repeater use, and do not extend past the sub-band edges. FCC regulation 97.205(b) defines frequencies that are currently available for repeater use. Please consult
 +your local ARCA Frequency Coordinator for help finding suitable repeater frequencies.
 +
 +For example, a 2-meter repeater on 145.50MHz would be out-of-band because the deviation will put the signal outside
 +of the authorized band segment.
 +
 +Packet radio operations under automatic control should be guided by Section 97.109(d) of the FCC rules. Prior to
 +regular packet radio use of any VHF/UHF "channel" is advisable to check with the local ARCA frequency
 +coordinator.
