Italians Gain 60m Access

Italian radio amateurs have just been allocated a slice of spectrum on the 60 metre band.

They will be allowed to use 5.3515 MHz to 5.3665 MHz on a secondary basis with a maximum equivalent isotropic power of 15 W (e.i.r.p.).

This follows the pattern set by many other European countries that have obtained similar allocations.
