>472-479 kHz. The worldwide amateur radio
>service has a new frequency band, 472 to 479
>kHz. It is a secondary allocation. There are
>other services in that portion of the spectrum
>that must not be interfered with by the amateur operation.

>The aeronautical radionavigation service is a
>primary service in the band 415-495 kHz in the
>following areas: Australia, China, the French
>overseas communities of Region 3, Korea (Rep.
>of), India, Iran (Islamic Republic of), Japan,
>Pakistan, Papua New Guinea and Sri Lanka.
>
>The aeronautical radionavigation service is a
>primary service in the band 435-495 kHz in the
>following areas: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus,
>the Russian Federation, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan.
>
>The amateurs are allowed to use the band so long
>as it does not cause interference to this
>primary service or the maritime mobile service
>operating in the 472-479 kHz band. There are
>some countries that will not allow amateur radio
>operation in the 472-479 kHz band. The use of
>the frequency band 472-479 kHz in Algeria, Saudi
>Arabia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, China,
>Comoros, Djibouti, Egypt, United Arab Emirates,
>the Russian Federation, Iraq, Jordan,
>Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania,
>Oman, Uzbekistan, Qatar, Syrian Arab Republic,
>Kyrgyzstan, Somalia, Sudan, Tunisia and Yemen is
>limited to the maritime mobile and aeronautical
>radionavigation services. The amateur service
>shall not be used in the above-mentioned
>countries in this frequency band, and this
>should be taken into account by the countries authorizing such use.
>
>The ITU Radio Regulations provide that radio
>amateurs are limited to 1 watt (e.i.r.p.)
>however administrations whose territory is
>beyond 800 kilometers from the borders of the
>following countries may increase the operating
>power to 5 watts (e.i.r.p.): Algeria, Saudi
>Arabia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, China,
>Comoros, Djibouti, Egypt, United Arab Emirates,

>of), Iraq, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Lebanon,
>Libya, Morocco, Mauritania, Oman, Uzbekistan,
>Qatar, Syrian Arab Republic, Kyrgyzstan,
>Somalia, Sudan, Tunisia, Ukraine and Yemen.

>The change becomes effective with the adoption
>of the Final Acts of the Conference. Of course,
>it will be determined by each administration
>around the world as to what modes and bandwidths
>will be used in this portion of the spectrum and
>when hams in that country will have access to the spectrum.

>More activities from the WRC-12 will be reported
>at the end of the WRC. The WRC continues until
>17 February. There is an effort underway to
>place an amateur radio agenda item on the agenda
>for the next WRC which will take place in 2015.
