Background
In the Netherlands, 436-440 MHz is secondary to the amateur
and amateur sat service. The folk experimenting with D-star
on 70cms use a fairly large shift of 9.4 Mhz, resulting in
a typical setup of 430.400-430.600 in and 439.800-440.000
The issue of D-STAR repeaters using the Amateur Satellite segments at 145.8,
435 and 1260 MHz has been of considerable concern in IARU Region 1.
This matter is addressed in Edition 52 of the International Amateur Radio Union
Region 1 VHF/UHF/uW newsletter.
