\"IARU_Region_1_logo\"<\/a>IARU Region 1 have released the papers for the Interim Meeting to be held in Vienna April 15-17, 2016.<\/p>\n

Among the papers<\/a> for the C5 VHF\/UHF\/Microwave Committee<\/a> is one on harmonizing APRS.<\/p>\n

VIE16_C5_41.pdf – 144 \/435 MHz APRS Harmonisation<\/p>\n

The paper covers global band planning considerations and recommends:<\/p>\n

Emphasise that spaceborne APRS must be confined to globally coordinated amateur satellite sub bands. Therefore items that are ambiguous and generate confusion in national band plans such as \u2018Space communications\u2019<\/strong> and \u2018New Oscar Sub band\u2019<\/strong> should be removed as soon as possible in all Regions<\/strong> in accordance with IARU-AC and Satellite Coordination guidance<\/em><\/p>\n

It is believed that \u2018New Oscar Sub band\u2019<\/em> refers to the USA’s ARRL 144 MHz band plan<\/a> and\u00a0\u2018Space communications\u2019\u00a0 <\/em>to the Australian WIA 144 MHz band plan<\/a>. These band plans as well as those for some other countries show 144.300 – 144.500 MHz<\/strong> as being for Amateur Satellite use.<\/p>\n
