[amsat-bb] satellite spectrum

[Howie DeFelice]

The conclusion of the recent WRC conference left open issues concerning the allocation of spectrum for pico and nano satellites. The requirement was identified as serious and will be an agenda item at the next WRC. In my opinion, this will put pressure on ham allocations from 5.8 GHz and down. I read about this in the current issue of ViaSatellite magazine, a publication geared to the commercial satellite industry. You can read the article in their online version of the magazine at: http://accessintelligence.imirus.com/Mpowered/book/vvs12/i10/p1
