Frequency Band

A Frequency Band defines a standard range used to organize the Frequency catalog and validate Frequency Sets. Values in TRAX use MHz.

Band Range in MHz
VHF 30–300
UHF 300–1,000
L 1,000–2,000
S 2,000–4,000
C 4,000–8,000
X 8,000–12,000
Ku 12,000–18,000
Ka 26,500–40,000

TRAX seeds these bands during migration. When creating or editing a band, select one of these names; TRAX supplies its standard boundaries. Each name can exist only once. Use the description to add local notes.

Band utilization compares catalog frequencies with values assigned to Frequency Sets in Active, Planned, or Maintenance status. These catalog ranges do not represent permission to transmit; use the frequencies assigned for your operation.
