[FedCom] 150.7375 Philadelphia

[Kevin O'Rourke]

While fairly rare, local and state government use of the VHF LMR band 
isn't without precedent.  Various county emergency management agencies 
have obtained permission to use freqs in this band to rebroadcast EMWIN 
weather data.  In addition, the State of Wisconsin is using freqs in 
that band for their statewide WISCOM trunked system

FWIW.....
