These are the European radio frequency allocations per the wall chart issued by RF Design magazine in 2005.
Ofcom (Office of Communications) in the UK is analogous to the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) in the U.S. As with all bureaucracies, rules are changed all the time, so it behooves you to check the source for regulations on frequency allocations, power limits, modulation techniques, etc., prior to planning any serious production design or implementation. The responsibility is entirely yours to assure compliance.
