What fun we will have when they come close to our 70cm radios.  I can 
imagine some  guy some where having dinner with his wife and he keeps 
kicking her under the table, for somewhere nearby some ham is having a QSO 
with some buds... Gary KB2YAA

From CQ e-mail news.

FCC Allows Implantable Medical Devices at 413-457 MHz - Devices will use =
electric currents to activate and monitor nerves and muscles in hopes of =
restoring mobility and function to people who have lost the use of limbs =
or organs, and will share spectrum with hams on 70 centimeters.

What a Christmas present!  There must be more to it.  But on its face, =
it looks like FCC has created another "opportunity" for amateur radio =
signal ingress/interference with a critical device.  I imagine a person =
with one of the devices implanted in an arm going all "herky-jerky" when =
a passing mobile or hand-held transmits on 440. Hope I'm wrong. But =
watching the FCC lately, I doubt it.

73,
Arthur
