Surveillance and Checks

Radio frequency spectrum is a limited natural resource. OFCOM ensures that users have access to this asset without any interference. Electrical devices and telecommunications equipment can have an unwanted impact on the frequency spectrum and impair communication. A radio can transmit on frequencies that are allocated to security services, for example, or a licensee might be using more equipment than they have reported, which can increase radio traffic considerably.
