What are the changes to RACES?
A. Specific RACES frequency bands and segments are deleted from the rules. In a RACES activation the ability to designate specific frequencies is already provided to the Director, OSTP. Q. I notice that there were some apparent problems in the R&O, such as its effect on the location of automated digital operation on 75 Meters and some the maximum allowable signal width of digital signals. What’s happening on these? A. The FCC corrected these problems with the release of Docket 05-235. The new frequency allocation for automated operations on 75 meters goes into effect on February 23, 2007 from 3585 – 3600 KHz. The changes correcting the signal width problem went into effect December 15, 2006.
