Henry, would you care to expound at all about "some manufacturer website"? You don't have to name any names, but I'd like to hear what kind of problems you've experienced (or heard of) when using the manufacturer's recommendations.

The results from the manufacturers' websites 'frequency coordination' (and I use that term loosely here) programs are based on the information from the FCC Media Bureau database, but what information and how it's weighted is not defined. By going directly to the Media Bureau database, one can see all the relevant details of each TV transmitter and [if they understand the significance of each bit of information] make a far better informed interference prediction - which is quite crucial if it's a box rental with the frequency coordination done in advance at the rental house without the benefit of a site survey or an on site RF guy.
