One also has to bear in mind that 433MHz is part of the radio amateur
band. I would guess that there are more radio amateurs than TETRA stations
so potentially, there are more sources of interference. Please note that I
use the word "interference" loosely. As a radio amateur myself, I
wouldn't
wish to be classified as such!

Well, on X-10 products, only the frequency is stated and not the usual
MPT classification.
