Land Mobile frequency coordinator provide, within one business day, a 
listing of their frequency recommendations to all other frequency 
coordinators in their respective pool, and, if requested, an 
engineering analyses. This requirement is necessary to avoid situations 
where harmful interference is created because two or more coordinators 
recommend the same frequency in the same area at approximately the same 
time to different applicants.
