[amsat-bb] Re: Terrestrial QRM to FM satellites

[Graham Shirville]

Hi Trevor,

Well at least for Region 1 I can own up to being a conduit for complaints 
about non amateur QRM in the 2 metre satellite band into the IARU Region 1 
Monitoring System. http://www.iarums-r1.org/ They are very active on the HF 
bands but I have to admit to not having been able to be very busy in respect 
to the satellite bands. So if any Region 1 active satellite user would like 
to take on the role please contact me offline.

Generally they have been very supportive as they understand that whereas 
problems on VHF/UHF are usually local/national issues, this is not the case 
when interference occurs to satellite uplinks.


In relation to Region 2 - this is the link http://www.iaruregion2.org/

and for Region 3  http://www.jarl.or.jp/iaru-r3/ms/

It would be sensible to also contact your national MS co-ordinator (if there 
is one in your country) at the same time of course!

cheers
