As you'll be well aware you need much more than a simple mapping of potential co-channels - you have to take into account image channels and the directional power templates of antennas at the very least, even before thinking about the intervening terrain. You also have to take into account transmissions in neighbouring countries of course.</span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";"> </span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";">I think all that can be done far more effectively in tabular form than on a map.</span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";"> </span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";">Of course, the elephant in this particular room is not in any case what frequencies are or aren't occupied, but what parameters Ofcom applies in assessing their potential for mutual interference - eg should a 99% confidence level or a 90% confidence level be used, should second adjacent channel be regarded as safe or not? Those are what make all the difference to the assumed potential for interference between transmitters. Similarly, is potential interference acceptable for 0.1% or 1% of the time or location? All these parameters are really what set the technical bar as to whether or not there are channels available. Then of course there are strategic and political issues, agrements for the BBC to have priority use of certain sub-bands etc.</span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";"> </span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";">One thing that could be considered for releasing more community radio frequencies is for Ofcom to reuse channels more closely on the basis of a mutual agreement between stations that they will not complain about the remote possibility of mutual interference less than say 1% of the time in 10% of their fringe. We have transmitters on the same frequencies just a few miles apart, but terrain-limited with no significant mutual interference in locations of interest, because we were able to agree not to complain about our transmitters interfering with each other! A similar thing happens on 96.6 between Nevis Radio (Fort William) and MFR (Aviemore) in the Laggan area half way between them. I suspect many groups would be willing to accept a service that might be subject to a little marginal interference in some limited locations rather thna no licence at all.</span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";"> </span></p></div><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";">As for suggestions on the map, which is nonetheless nice to have, could I suggest you add in the Scottish not-for-profit stations that operate as non-profit community stations, but for historical reasons have commercial licences (Cuillin FM, Two Lochs Radio, Lochbroom FM, Argyll FM, Oban FM, Isles FM). That would give a more representative picture of community radio cover in the northwest of the UK, which otherwise looks a bit empty on the map!
