      SB QST @ ARL $ARLB012       ARLB012 ARRL HF Band Planning Committee Seeks Suggestions on IARU Region 2 HF       Band Plan              ZCZC AG12       QST de W1AW       ARRL Bulletin 12 ARLB012       > From ARRL Headquarters       Newington CT March 24, 2016       To all radio amateurs              SB QST ARL ARLB012       ARLB012 ARRL HF Band Planning Committee Seeks Suggestions on IARU Region 2 HF       Band Plan              The ARRL Board of Directors' HF Band Planning Committee is inviting input from       the US Amateur Radio community regarding possible changes to the International       Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Region 2 Band Plan. The band plan can be found on       the web at, http://www.iaru-r2.org/band-plan/ .              That band plan and other significant Amateur Radio spectrum issues will be       high on the agenda at this fall's IARU Region 2 General Assembly in Chile.       Leading up to that gathering, the ARRL and other IARU member societies in the       Americas will be seeking comments and suggestions regarding the Region 2 HF       Band Plan. The HF Band Planning Committee will review the current plan,       consider comments from the US Amateur Radio community, and recommend any       changes to the ARRL Board for submission to IARU Region 2.              "The ARRL HF Band Planning Committee wants to stress that the IARU Region 2       Band Plan is a voluntary guideline and does not supersede FCC regulations       related to spectrum usage," Committee Chairman and ARRL Second Vice President       Brian Mileshosky, N5ZGT, noted. He also pointed out two other issues for radio       amateurs to consider.              * Most Region 2 countries outside the US do not have the sort of detailed       sub-band regulations contained in the FCC's Part 97. For radio amateurs in       these countries, the Region 2 Band Plan may serve as the only source of       guidance on spectrum usage.              * The designation of a calling frequency or band segment for a particular       purpose or mode in any IARU band plan does not convey any special rights or       exclusivity of use. On the other hand the absence of a calling frequency or       band segment associated with a particular purpose or mode should not suggest       that these have been overlooked or are viewed negatively.              The Committee is urging US radio amateurs who are considering suggesting       revisions to the IARU Region 2 Band Plan first to study the existing IARU       Region 2 Band Plan. They then should formulate a       clear statement of any proposed changes, including a brief explanation of why       each particular change would benefit all IARU Region 2 spectrum users.       Participants should include name and call sign. Submit input via e-mail by       June 1, 2016 to, bandplan2016@arrl.org . Messages will be automatically       acknowledged.              Radio amateurs licensed in Region 2 countries other than the US should contact       their own IARU member society for information on how to participate in the       band-planning process. A list of societies can be found on the web at,       http://www.iaru-r2.org/directory/ .              The 19th IARU Region 2 General Assembly will take place in mid-October in Vina       del Mar, Chile. Held every 3 years, the Region 2 Conference is attended by       delegations from IARU member societies in       throughout the Americas.              NNNN       /EX              )\/(ark              Always Mount a Scratch Monkey              ...
