[Elecraft] FCC R&O approves 630m ham band

[Terry N4TLF]

I don’t hear any PLC, but I’m too far away from a utility, and I don’t know if they even use it here in Charleston, SC.

Can you hear the PLC on a radio or do you have to ask somebody?  If you can hear it what does it sound like?

  I have the FCC document linked from my website; http://www.kl7uw.com/home.htm 
  Look for 600m - FCC announcement 

  Dated March 29, 2017 the FCC approves ham radio use at 472-479 KHz 
  (630m) though not quite final for ham use. 
  5w EIRP approved which is just about what one gets with reasonable 
  antenna fed with 100w.  Hams will have to register with a power 
  utility agency to ensure no mutual interference with PLC usage by 
  utilities.  Ham radio will be a secondary user. 

  I expect ARRL to make a similar announcement, soon. 

  I am part of the ARRL Experimental Group who have been licensed as 
  experimental stations for about four years on 600/630m.
