Sorry if this post is slightly off-topic.  We are trying to reach simplex
operators located in New England.


At its annual meeting on August 24, New England Spectrum Management, the
amateur radio repeater coordinator for Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode
Island, and Maine, announced a proposal to modify the 2m band plan to
include new repeater channels with outputs from 146.41 to 146.49 and inputs
147.41 to 147.49.  Also included was a test pair at 147.505 with a 146.505
input.  In the near future, there will be a vote by the NESMC membership on
this band plan.  There is no doubt that some existing simplex users may be
affected by this change.


In order to gauge the impact of this change, NESMC has attempted to find as
many simplex users as it can.  We are also seeking additional input from
the amateur community.  If this interests you, you may find additional
information about the change at http://www.nesmc.org/2013-2m.pdf.   You may
be interested in joining a discussion group set up for this purpose
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nesmc.

individuals - we are trying to reach as many people as possible.

* In our attempts to reach as many people as possible, we are posting this
to several mailing lists. Please accept my apologies if you receive this
more than once.
