Military Use of 50 MHz Frequencies

IARU Region 1 reports on the planned use of two frequencies in the amateur radio 50 MHz band by the Belgian Military on 18th June 2022

The Belgian telecommunication authority BIPT informs that a military exercise will take place in Elzenborn near the German-Belgian border until June 18, 2022, during which two frequencies in the 6-metre band will be used: 50.200 MHz and 51.075 MHz.

Radio amateurs are therefore asked to keep these frequencies clear or observe them during this time before transmitting there.

The amateur radio service has a secondary status in this band, while military radio has a primary status.
