This is potentially huge. IVP Bellows and I were just talking about this an hour or so ago. Just learned of it and we need to be prepared to take action. 73Rick - K5UR -----Original Message----- From: rjairam@gmail.com <rjairam@gmail.com> To: arrl-odv <arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> Sent: Mon, Jun 10, 2019 5:11 pm Subject: [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.
