To: vuhams@yahoogroups.com, ARSICOM <arsicom@yahoogroups.com>
I spoke to WPC just now and they have confirmed that the extra bandwidth has
been officially released to VU radio amateurs based on the petitions given
by ARSI on 15 April 2009, soon after the band was to be released as per
agreement inWRC2003
The notification will appear on the WPC webpage shortly
VU hams can now officially use that extra band width
They have also confirmed that the other requests made by ARSI regarding 10
MHz and 50 MHz are also under consideration, so please wait for further news
It would be nice if a number of hams write and thank WPC and the Dept of
Telecommunications for listening to our requests so that the remaining
request are also processed quickly
