Broadcasting use of frequency Band 7.1 to 7.2 MHz



Published: 11.02.2009

In accordance with the ITU Radio Regulations published last year the use of the frequency band 7.1 to 7.2 MHz for Broadcasting services will cease after 29 March 2009.

This change aligns use of the band in ITU-R Regions 1 and 3 with Region 2.  (Region 3 includes New Zealand).  PIB 21 will be amended by removing the New Zealand broadcasting allocation in this band.
 
This change means that the amateur radio service will enjoy primary access to the band after 29 March 2009.
