  1. Band Plans Chapter 4 Section 2

  2. Allocated Frequencies • FCC and ITU have allocated certain frequency ranges to Amateur Operators • Amateur Operators Recognized that certain things made better sense • 6 meter frequencies • Some parts are very good for long range ratio contact • Some parts work better locally • Does not make sense to use long range areas for local contacts • Coordinate frequencies used by repeaters and those used for radio to radio contacts • Satellites can’t easily change frequencies • Pick frequencies that get into space good for satellites

  3. Band Plans • Band Plans suggest that certain frequency ranges be used for certain things • It is a voluntary guideline beyond the rules set forth by the FCC (T3B01) • Band Plans are put together by the Amateur Radio Community (T3B03) • American Radio Relay League put together a nice outline – left some things open locally • In our area Repeater Councils in Illinois and Missouri fill in some of local decisions • Band Plans are voluntary guidelines to help ensure the efficient use of the radio spectrum (T3B02)
