[NLRS] ARRL BOD activity relating to VHF

[Vhfrover]

 I applaud the ARRL BOD for changing the maximum power level for the single operator low power (SOLP) catagory for 902 MHz and up from 10 watts to 50 watts!

Thanks to all who helped push this change through!

Hello NLRS land



At the January ARRL BOD meeting, minutes of which can be found on the ARRL 

website, the following actions took place that pertain to VHFers.



1.  The VHF UHF Advisory Committee (VUAC) charter has been extended to July 

2012.   It was scheduled to sunset this July.  

2.  The Microwave Band Planning Committee was dissolved.

3.  The maximum power level for the single operator low power (SOLP) catagory 

for 902 MHz and up was changed from 10 watts to 50 watts.   There is no change 

to power levels below 902 MHz.   In addition, clarification was added that power 

output is measured at the final stage of amplification.  If interested, see the 

VUAC committee report at  http://www.arrl.org/committee-reports for the full 

VUAC report on this change.   Although I could not find the PSC meeting minutes 

that indicate that this proposal was approved, it is my understanding that it 

has been and we should see the rules updated in the near future.



73, Jon
