The CEPT Conference Preparatory Group met this week in Ankara, Turkey.
Items of interest to the amateur service which were finalised were:

- Agreement to a European Common Proposal (ECP) on allocating 50-52 MHz to
the amateur service in Region 1 on a secondary basis with a footnote
listing those countries where the amateur service will have a primary
allocation in the band 50-50.5 MHz (WRC Agenda Item 1.1)

- Agreement to an ECP on spectrum to be considered for International Mobile
Telecommunications, which does not now include the primary amateur band at
47-47.2 GHz (WRC Agenda Item 1.13)

- Agreement to an ECP that retains the current regulatory position in the
5725-5850 MHz frequency band which includes secondary allocations to the
amateur service and the amateur-satellite service (WRC Agenda Item 1.16)

-



- At the insistence of the European Commission, a WRC-23 agenda item was
considered necessary to address the world-wide protection of Regional
Navigational Satellite Systems from amateur emissions in the band 1240-1300
MHz. A draft WRC Resolution was agreed which underlines the importance of
this frequency band to the amateur service and explicitly excludes the
removal of existing allocations as part of the proposed agenda item. (WRC
Agenda Item 10)

- There was no change to the already agreed CEPT position on Wireless Power
Transmission (WRC Agenda item 9.1.6). This states that no change is needed
in the Radio Regulations to address the question of operating frequency for
WPT-EV, but leaves open the question of spurious emissions from WPT-EV.

Commenting on the outcome of CPG, IARU Region 1 President Don Beattie,
G3BJ, said that the IARU team at Ankara (the only representatives of the
amateur service at the meeting) had presented clear and convincing
arguments for the amateur service position and he was pleased that
regulators had recognised the strength of the amateur case. He expressed
his thanks to everyone who had contributed to the outcome at CPG.

The issues now move to WRC in Egypt in November for final resolution. IARU
will be there.
