San Francisco / Oakland / Berkeley

171 10 Cross Bay
173 20 Richmond / Berkeley / Oakland / HWD We should probably be using 174 to avoid overlap with 171 (see here)
175 10 Mount Diablo
177 10 Oakland / Berkeley
179 10 SFWEM
181 10 NALCO
183 10 NALCO

Comments

Channels are defined to be 5 MHz wide, reaching 2.5 MHz above and below their center frequency. Most channels used by BAM are 10 MHz wide, so +/- 5MHz of their center frequency. This means we only use odd channel numbers as 10 MHz channels overlap with even channels.

20 MHz channels extend +/- 10 MHz. This mean the partially or completely overlap with two channels above and below.
