FCC Invites Comments on ARRL Petition to Allocate New 5 MHz Band:

eHam.net News — The FCC has invited comments on the ARRL’s January 12 Petition for Rule
Making
to allocate a new, secondary contiguous band at 5 MHz to the Amateur
Service. The League also asked the Commission to keep four of the
current five 60-meter channels — one would be within the new band —
as well as the current operating rules, including the 100 W PEP
effective radiated power (ERP) limit. The federal government is the
primary user of the 5 MHz spectrum. The FCC has designated the League’s
Petition as RM-11785 and put it on public notice. Comments are due
Monday, March 20. ARRL plans to file comments in support of its
petition.
