Hi Bill  
Here is the url
http://www.ntia.doc.gov/page/frequency-assignment-subcommittee-fas

Some years back I got an experimental license for non sat use. Several
universitys have obtained sat license this way. They are assigned on the
same frequency as the ham sats and I don't know if they coordinate with the
IRAU. The experimental license allows the organizations to make money .

Hi Bill,

IRAC is the NTIA's (National Telecommunications and Information Administration)
Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC), I think.

They can ask for an experimental license which be coordinated  via IRAC. It
could be in 430 to 450 mhz band

Howie,

A quick check with the IARU satellite frequency coordination list does 
not show Aeneas as having been coordinated. Is the IARU not up to date 
or was the satellite not coordinated.

I'm pretty positive this isn't in the amateur service, so no coordination with 
the IARU would be expected.

Hi Drew,

Yah - I didn't see any reference to Amateur radio in the link Howie 
posted so you're probably right. But while checking there, I also looked 
for their Caerus 1U operating on 437.6 MHz, I couldn't find it on the 
IARU list. Did I miss it?

No, I don't see it either, and if I recall some of us let them know about 
coordination after the fact. Some of the groups certainly ignore or are 
ignorant of coordination, or the rules of the service for that matter.

Geez - it's danged frustrating when we bitch about the Russians or 
Chinese not bothering to coordinate but to have a USA university such as 
USC ignore the concept of coordination of our band is just inexcusable 
in my opinion. I'd better stop there!

I read the description of the satellite a little more carefully this time and 
noticed it is being built on a standard NRO cubesat bus. Very interesting 
that an organization like NRO is utilizing cubesats. This also probably means 
they are not using amateur spectrum for this one.
