  The FCC has issued a Notice of Proposed Rule-making (NPRM) which effects   Amateur Radio use of the 60m band. Details include:       + The FCC proposes to allocate 15 kHz of contiguous bandwidth between   5351.5 - 5366.5 kHz on a secondary basis with a maximum power of 15 W   EIRP (equivalent to 9.15 W ERP). This allocation was adopted at the 2015   World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-15).       + The NPRM leaves open the question of whether the existing five 60m   channels can still be used for Amateur Radio operation as well as if the   100w power level may still be used.       + The FCC has requested comments relative to existing channels and power   issue.       Comments on this NPRM are due by October 30th, 2023.       In 2017, the ARRL petitioned the FCC to keep the four 60-meter channels   that fall outside the new band, as well as the current operating rules,   including the 100 W ERP limit.       We need as many Hams as possible to comment on this NPRM and urge the   FCC to keep 1) the 4 existing channels allocated to Amateur Radio on a   secondary basis and 2) keep the 100w power limit for these channels. You   might also want to note that the 60m band is important for Amateur Radio   emergency communications during disasters.       You can file comments using one of these links -       https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/express  (for directly entering   comments)   https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings/standard (for uploading a document   containing comments)       Please try to find time to help us protect our 60m privileges. Your help   will be much appreciated by all Hams.       --------------------------------------------------------------------   ARRL New England Division   Director: Fred Kemmerer, AB1OC   ab1oc at arrl.org   --------------------------------------------------------------------       To unsubscribe from messages, go to:   http://p1k.arrl.org/oo/0a44f972ed76a40c7e6c5e6dc43d105e
