ARRL reports<\/a> on Beijing\u2019s draft Measures for the Administration of Amateur Radio Stations<\/strong><\/a> which appear to threaten 136 kHz and most amateur bands above 146 MHz.<\/p>\n

ARRL say:<\/p>\n

Lide Zhang, BI8CKU<\/strong>, told ARRL that the proposal would prohibit amateur operation on the 2200-meter band as well as on 146 \u2013 148 MHz, 1260 \u2013 1300 MHz, 3400 \u2013 3500 MHz, 5650 \u2013 5725 MHz, and all bands above 10 GHz.<\/em><\/p>\n

Radio communications engineer and Chinese Amateur Satellite Group (CAMSAT) CEO Alan Kung, BA1DU<\/strong>, told ARRL that government efforts to eliminate some amateur bands are nothing new, but proposals that have been aired for a while now are on the regulatory agency\u2019s schedule. Kung said he does not anticipate that all of the bands proposed will be taken away, but he conceded that the climate will \u201cundoubtedly\u201d become increasingly more dangerous for China\u2019s amateur radio community.<\/em><\/p>\n
