The 10-meter band was allocated on a worldwide basis by the International Radiotelegraph Conference in Washington, DC, on 4 October 1927. [2] Its frequency allocation was then 28-30 MHz. A 300 kHz segment, from 29.700–30.000 MHz, was removed from the amateur radio allocation in 1947 by the International Radio Conference of Atlantic City.
They consist of 30 meters (10.1–10.15 MHz), 17 meters (18.068–18.168 MHz), and 12 meters (24.89–24.99 MHz). [1] [2] They were named after the World Administrative Radio Conference, which in 1979 created a worldwide allocation of these bands for amateur use. The bands were opened for use in the early 1980s.
Shortwave bands are frequency allocations for use within the shortwave radio spectrum (the upper medium frequency [MF] band and all of the high frequency [HF] band). Radio waves in these frequency ranges can be used for very long distance (transcontinental) communication because they can reflect off layers of charged particles in the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon, a ...
The 2007 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-07) made a worldwide amateur radio allocation in this band. An international 2.1 kHz allocation, the 2 200 meter band (135.7–137.9 kHz) is available to amateur radio operators in several countries in Europe, [7] New Zealand, Canada, US, [8] and French overseas dependencies.
The 8–meter band (40 MHz) is at present the lowest portion of the very high frequency (VHF) radio spectrum available for national amateur radio use. The term refers to the average signal wavelength of 8 meters. The 8–meter band shares many characteristics with the neighboring 6–meter and 10–meter bands.
