[arrl-odv:28201] 2 meters in France

Dear ODV, As you may know, France wants 2 meters as the primary band for aeronautical mobiles. The fact that they even propose this is alarming. It's not the first time that 2 meters has been under threat either. https://www.iaru-r1.org/index.php/88-news/1864-wrc-23-agenda-items "A proposal from France to consider the band 144-146 MHz as a primary allocation to the Aeronautical Mobile service, as part of a broader consideration of the spectrum allocated to that service." It's one reason I always stress the need for every ham to be a member of ARRL or their national society. Ria N2RJ
