I will use the suggestion by Geri, DK8KW, with a remark that it has not the

of an official bandplan but should be regarded as a suggestion that has been
accepted by most, but not all, users of the LF band.
I will also add some remarks made by Mike, G3XDV, in a direct e-mail to me.
This is partially true. Dick should also look on the RSGB LF site
(http://www.g3wkl.freeserve.co.uk/lf/lf_index.htm) where he will find the
proposed
voluntary bandplan which is to be ratified by IARU region 1 later this year.
This
bandplan (which I think is identical to Geri's apart from some extra comments)
was
published in RadCom April 2002 with the comment:
'No rigid band plan is proposed for the 136kHz band, but amateurs are asked to
work
within the following conventions, giving long-distance communications and
experimentation priority'
By and large this is consistent with current band practice.
