WARC 10MHz band open to VU2 Hams
10-12-2009
Ingediend door: ON5EX
The Wireless Planning & Communication (WPC) Wing of the Ministry of Communications in India has written to Gopal VU2GMN (President, Amateur Radio Society of India) to inform that 10100 to 10150 has been allocated to Amateur Services on a secondary basis in India.

This means that VU2 hams are free to use this on a non-interference basis with existing users of these frequencies. Earlier, temporary permission was issued from time to time for this WARC band. It has also been communicated to Gopal that the 50-52 MHz (6M) band cannot be allocated now since it has already been allocated to other services. Hopefully they can still get some spot frequencies there in future.
