Forget 130 - 180 MHz. In most of the world, that includes aircraft, marine, amateur and other radio services. Where in the world are you?

If you don't have DAB Band III radio there, you could use 180MHz.

You need a selective and sensitive receiver, and your link frequency should be well away from two times your main transmitter frequency, to prevent the receiver seeing second harmonic, and becoming desensitised (or even completely jammed).
