[FedCom] 400MHz bandplan

[Greg Brazil]

Hi all.  The base I'm talking about is the former Coast Guard Island, 
then it changed it's name to Integrated Support Unit, Alameda and now 
USCG Base, Alameda.  It is in the middle of the Oakland-Alameda Estuary, 
within The City of Alameda although the only vehicle access is from 
Oakland.  This is not the old Naval Air Station in Alameda.

Several years ago it was one of two boot camps that the Coast Guard 
had.  It is now HQ for The Coast Guards 11Th Coast Guard District which 
covers all of Calif, Nevada, Utah and Arizona and HQ for The Coast 
Guards Pacific Area & Defense Force West, which is a 3 star job, with 
one person commanding both jobs.  Pac Area covers 74 million square 
miles ranging from South America to the Arctic Circle and from Montana 
to Madagascar.

The three National Security Cutters (Legends class) mentioned below use 
a Hydra 380 to 399.9975 trunked analog radio system.

As for the former NAS The xUSS Hornet CV-12 museum is at Pier 3 and the 
rest of the piers are used for ready reserve ships, which are ships 
owned by the US Gov't Maritime Administration, maned by civilians and 
kept in a surge status.

Some of the buildings / hangers have been rented, although I'm not up on 
all that.  One hanger is a sports facility, one is a wine brewery, one 
is a movie studio and one is making green cars, I think.  There is a 
museum at the old operations building also.

That's about all I know, hope this helps.

Greg
