\"IARU_Region_1_logo\"<\/a>The IARU Region 1\u00a0Interim Meeting was held in Vienna April 15-17, 2016. Minutes for the C5 VHF\/UHF\/Microwave committee are now available.<\/p>\n

Some 70 delegates from over 20 Member Societies discussed a wide range of issues in the VHF\/UHF\/Microwave, HF and EMC Committees. Recommendations from the meeting will be considered by the Region 1 Executive Committee at its meeting in early May 2016. If approved by the EC, these recommendations will become interim Region 1 policy until the next General Conference in 2017, at which time all Societies present will have the opportunity to ratify the proposals.<\/p>\n

Among the key items in the minutes are:<\/p>\n

4.1. Report of satellite coordinator C5_04<\/strong>
\nGraham Shirville G3VZV<\/strong> presented the report of satellite coordinator. G3VZV emphasized that the frequency coordination between the three Regions has to be improved for avoiding interference incidents like PC-Sat<\/a><\/strong> and some of the XW2 satellites.<\/p>\n

Due to current reports from MS about some observations of harmful interference, RSGB is asked to prepare a statement for publishing to inform MS and members how to take care.<\/p>\n

C5 chairman is asked to bring up the issue on EC meeting, because further AC action is required.<\/p>\n

5.2. Band Planning 5 GHz: C5_10<\/strong>
\nVIE16_C5_Rec_06: To correct the satellite segment the table in chapter 4.9 by deleting \u201c5790\u201d, inserting \u201c5830\u201d and adding the footnote: \u201cAny wideband system shall protect narrowband applications\u201d.<\/p>\n

7.2. APRS Harmonisation: C5_41<\/strong>
\nVIE16_C5_Rec_23: The C5 chairman to answer Regions 2 and 3 that:
\n\u2022 144.390 MHz is not suitable for Region 1 and that Region-3 should consider 144.800
\n\u2022 To consider an additional 144 MHz frequency (that might be compatible) with Region 2 and 3
\n\u2022 To also consider 435 MHz usage and newer APRS technologies (for the 2017 GC)<\/p>\n
