The logic is that if the commercial interests in only one region
objects to the proposed common frequency the whole proposal falls. It
is up to the amateur service in each region to work out what they
feel would have the greatest chance of success. Ideally there should
be a worldwide allocation, but we have lived with split bands before,
and in fact voluntarily split our own bands on a geographical basis.
