Federal Communications Commission File

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) file contains the records of frequencies assigned, by the FCC, to state and local government agencies, and to the private sector. This data is updated semi-annually.

Canadian Date File

The Canadian Date File (CDF) contains data (updated semi-annually) on Canadian frequency assignments excluding military. Data Source: Industry Canada Data

International Frequency List

The International Frequency List contains records (updated semi-annually). for international frequency assignments that nations choose to register with the International Frequency Registration Board (IFRB). Data Source: International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in Geneva, Switzerland

Master Radio Frequency List

The Master Radio Frequency List (MRFL) contains data, which is updated semi-annually, on frequency assignments used by US forces in NATO Europe and data on all NATO assignments in the 100-156 MHz, the 225-400 MHz and the 960-1215 MHz frequency bands.

Radio Astronomy File

The Radio Astronomy (RA) file contains a list of frequencies used throughout the world that are of particular interest to radio astronomers. This data is manually updated at the JCS as data becomes available. Data Source: National Research Council

EMI Resolution Data

The Joint Spectrum Interference Resolution (JSIR) Database was developed to store reported EMI incidents/resolutions. Within each Service, EMI incident reports are sent in message format. Copies of each of these messages are forwarded to the JSC and are stored in the JSIR database. All message traffic on interference incident and resolution is used to generate JSIR records. The database, which is maintained and updated monthly, contains data on reported interference from the 1970s until the present. Prior to June 1992, this data was referred to as Meaconing, Intrusion, Jamming, and Interference (MIJI) data and was maintained by the, Joint Electronic Warfare Center.

Radiation Hazards Data

The Joint Ordnance E3 Risk Assessment Database (JOERAD) provides Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance (HERO) susceptibility data for all DoD ordnance fired by an electrically initiated device (EID). These EIDs can be affected by high-power electromagnetic radiation. This database includes measured and specification data for safe handling and storage of ordnance in an electromagnetic environment, as well as data to assist in HERO impact assessments, such as emitter characteristics and equipment complement data for military units and platforms.
