IDXC 2020 ---> Registration for the 71st Annual International DX Convention,
to be held on 24-26 April at the Wyndham Hotel in Visalia (CA) will open on

WRC-19: REGION 1 50 MHZ AMATEUR ALLOCATIONS ---> IARU has released a more
detailed report (see https://www.iaru-r1.org/) on the outcome of Agenda Item
1.1 (50 MHz) at the recent World Radiocommunication Conference in Egypt.
The IARU position was to seek a 4 MHz primary allocation in Region 1 in
common with that in other ITU regions. Proposals from administrations and
Regional Telecommunications Organisations around the world ranged from no
allocation at all to the provision of a 4 MHz primary allocation.
The table at http://www.iaru-r1.org/wiki/VHF#50-54_MHz_.286_m.29 ("Overview
of 50 MHz status in ITU Region 1") is IARU's understanding of the position
on 50 MHz allocations in Region 1 before and after WRC-19. The definitive
position is the responsibility of individual national administrations.
Provisions of the ITU Regulations, as revised by WRC-19, shall enter into
force on 1 January 2021, however administrations may make provisions to
provide 50 MHz spectrum at an earlier or later date. Unless already licensed
to do so, individual amateurs should not use the newly allocated spectrum
until their national licensing authority has given the go ahead for its use.
