Other Users (7B2)

In this section we look at how we co-exist with other users or services of the radio spectrum.  Examples include broadcasters, radio astronomy.

 

The radio spectrum is divided into internationally agreed allocations to coordinate various uses.  Amateurs have to share radio spectrum with many other services.  Other services are mainly in adjacent bands, but sometimes may be within an Amateur band.    

 

The table below shows a range of services that use the VHF spectrum between 87MHz and 160MHz.  This table will be provided to you to refer to in the exam.
