Member societies should advise operators not to transmit on frequencies between 29.3 and 29.51 MHz to avoid interference to amateur satellite downlinks.

Preferred NBFM operating frequencies on each 10 kHz from 29.210 to 29.290 MHz inclusive should be used. A deviation of ±2.5 kHz being used with 2.5 kHz as maximum modulation frequency.


DEFINITIONS

All modes CW, SSB and those modes listed as Centres of Activity, plus AM (Consideration should be given to adjacent channel users).
 
Image modes Any analogue or digital image modes within the appropriate bandwidth, for example SSTV and FAX.

Narrow band modes All modes using up to 500 Hz bandwidth, including CW, RTTY, PSK etc.

Digimodes Any digital mode used within the appropriate bandwidth, for example RTTY, PSK, MT63 etc.

(*) Lowest dial setting for LSB Voice mode: 1843, 3603 and 7053 kHz.


NOTES

Amplitude modulation (AM) may be used in the telephony sub-bands providing consideration is given to adjacent channel users. (NRRL Davos 05).

CW QSOs are accepted across all bands, except within beacon segments. (Recommendation DV05_C4_Rec_13).

Contest activity shall not take place on the 10, 18 and 24 MHz bands.

Non-contesting radio amateurs are recommended to use the contest-free HF bands (30, 17 and 12m) during the largest international contests. (DV05_C4_Rev_07).

The term “automatically controlled data stations” includes Store and Forward stations.

The frequencies in the bandplan are understood as “transmitted frequencies” (not those of the suppressed carrier!).

Unmanned transmitting stations:

IARU member societies are requested to limit this activity on the HF bands. It is recommended that any unmanned transmitting stations on HF shall only be activated under operator control except for beacons agreed with the IARU Region 1 beacon coordinator, or specially licensed experimental stations.

Sideband Usage Below 10MHz use lower sideband (LSB), above 10 MHz use upper sideband (USB).
