Dick, the current IARU agreed bandplanning for 136kHz is now out-of-date and a new set of Guidlines has been adopted by RSGB and sent to IARU for discussion at their Region 1 Conference in San Marino in a few months time. The details of the RSGB proposal is at http://www.g3wkl.freeserve.co.uk/lf/136kHz.html - as you will see it is based very much on the excellent suggestion on Geri's site. I did publicise this a while ago on the reflector, but I guess not everyone saw it.

If you believe that VERNON can support this proposal, then it would be appropriate to publish the details of the proposal as RSGB did earlier this year when they issued their annual update on amateur bandplans.

Over the last year I have been supporting LF discussions within the External Relations Committee of IARU Region 1. This has recently been formalised with my election onto the committee as LF Coordinator for Region 1.

Hope that the above helps

To All from PA0SE

Many thanks to all who responded to my request (see below).

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

Our national amateur radio society VERON every two years brings out a Vademecum (handbook, manual).

I have been asked to write the chapter on LF.

In the previous edition (year 2000) the chapter on LF included a bandplan:

135,7-136,0 kHz:    local tests and temporary beacon transmissions
136,0-137,1 kHz:    normal CW
137,5-137,6 kHz:    non-CW modes (PSK31, RTTY, etc.)
137,7-137,8 kHz:    slow CW (QRSS)

Is it still considered valid or would it be better not to mention it?

Or could you recommend a different text?

Suggestions are welcome!
