I'm still trying to figure out why my request for the
Experimental Permit was denied... If I recall, I was told there wasn't anything
new to be learned at that frequency, and that my region (VE6) wasn't
particularly interesting.
I wonder who gets to decide who gets to operate...? I know
it's not RAC, although they do provide the paperwork.

Canadian Amateurs on 600 Metres Industry Canada has accepted an RAC
proposal whereby selected Canadian radio amateurs would be permitted to
operate in the vicinity of 500 kHz. These amateur operations would
support Canada's efforts to action a proposal on the agenda of the 2011
World Radio Conference (WRC2011) which, if adopted, would create an
amateur allocation in the 600-meter band. Industry Canada have
authorized RAC to recommend amateurs who would be licensed to operate in
the 504 to 509 kHz band with a maximum power of 20 watts ERP and
bandwidth up to 1 kHz. Stations operating in this band would be
technically operating under Special Developmental Licenses although they
would all be radio amateurs. Distinct call signs would be used and the
licenses would be renewable annually subject to the amateur
demonstrating the research he has carried out. More information will
follow shortly in the pages of TCA or via subsequent bulletins. Bryan

From the IARU web site
As of 30 October 2009 Canada issued two licences in the
Developmental Service in the range 504-509 kHz.
- VE1ZZ has been assigned VX9PSO and is reported on 504.6 kHz
- VO1NA has been assigned VX9MRC and is reported on 507.77 and
508.5 kHz
Two more stations, VE3OHH and VE7BDQ, are expected to become
active soon.
