Are we participating? I see very little mention of the subject in RadCom.
Anyway it looks like its a fait accomplie.

As with all legislation, this has been a very long time coming, and there have
been several items in RadCom about it spread over the last few years, mainly
in the EMC column. The RSGB was instrumental in setting up a body
representing the interests of the various users of the short-waves, and this
body has been submitting data to the standards organisations for several
years. Two relevant documents are on the RSGB web site:
http://www.rsgb.org/adsl.htm and
http://www.rsgb.org/powerlines.htm
Further detail is at the RSGB EMC Committee site:
