SW 6050.12A CHANGE SUPPLEMENTS OPTIONAL CHANGE SUPPLEMENTS OPTIONAL TO TO BASIC BASIC 12/12/01 SW 6050.12A FOREWORD The radio frequency spectrum is a finite, vital, and very limited natural resource available to all countries of the world. This international resource serves mankind in innumerable ways, and each country exercises its own sovereign rights in the use of the electromagnetic waves. Because the radio spectrum knows no bounds, its use cannot be restricted to individual countries. Requirements for use of this resource generally exceed the amount available; therefore, it is necessary that international, national, and regional spectrum management be rigidly practiced. The purpose of this spectrum management order is to present radio frequency spectrum information, guidance, and policy to those organizations using or administrating the radio frequency spectrum within the Southwest Region.

We also welcome news from other ATV groups around the USA. We encourage you to forward this newsletter on to other ATV ham friends in your clubs. Quote from John - WB0CMC: "If you have a good comb generator would that help if you’re having a bad AIR day?" NEW 2ed WEEKLY ATV NET: Due to the pandemic, and everyone being required to stay at home, we are all getting "Cabin Fever" and missing our social interactions with friends and society in general. Thus, the consensus of most of the BATVC members, is that we should hold two ATV nets each week for the duration. Our regular net has been on Thursday afternoons at 3pm local time, with Don, N0YE, as net control. Colin, WA2YUN, has suggested we do the second net on Sunday afternoons. So, let's do it starting this Sunday, the 29th, at 3pm local time. I propose we use a different format with a round table discussion of various topics. Our Thursday nets, seem to be for one ham to talk for several minutes on one or more subjects. For the new Sunday net, let's try making much shorter TV transmissions and expressing our thoughts on a particular subject and then turning it over to another for their comments.

  • Digital Radio Technology and Applications
    it DIGITAL RADIO TECHNOLOGY AND APPLICATIONS Proceedings of an International Workshop organized by the International Development Research Centre, Volunteers in Technical Assistance, and United Nations University, held in Nairobi, Kenya, 24-26 August 1992 Edited by Harun Baiya (VITA, Kenya) David Balson (IDRC, Canada) Gary Garriott (VITA, USA) 1 1 X 1594 F SN % , IleCl- -.01 INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH CENTRE Ottawa Cairo Dakar Johannesburg Montevideo Nairobi New Delhi 0 Singapore 141 V /IL s 0 /'A- 0 . Preface The International Workshop on Digital Radio Technology and Applications was a milestone event. For the first time, it brought together many of those using low-cost radio systems for development and humanitarian-based computer communications in Africa and Asia, in both terrestrial and satellite environments. Ten years ago the prospect of seeing all these people in one place to share their experiences was only a far-off dream. At that time no one really had a clue whether there would be interest, funding and expertise available to exploit these technologies for relief and development applications. VITA and IDRC are pleased to have been involved in various capacities in these efforts right from the beginning. As mentioned in VITA's welcome at the Workshop, we can all be proud to have participated in a pioneering effort to bring the benefits of modern information and communications technology to those that most need and deserve it. But now the Workshop is history. We hope that the next ten years will take these technologies beyond the realm of experimentation and demonstration into the mainstream of development strategies and programs.
