Total spectrum is 14.350 MHz. At 12.5 kHz channel spacing, that is 1148 channels. If the system is half-duplex or split, then 574 channels. At 25 kHz spacing the total available channels drops down to 574.

Additional research regarding this spectrum indicates that it may be allocated a shared service status with NB-IoT narrowband Internet of things.

Frequency allocation table and notes from Moldova indicate that a very similar frequency band is "shared", but information is sparse.
