Hi All,
With TC Debbie bearing down on Bowen and surrounds I thought it might be timely to put the IARU Region 3 CoA frequencies out there:
The International Amateur Radio Union Region 3 Band Plan has been updated to include five emergency Centre of Activity (CoA) frequencies.
These are 3.600, 7.110, 14.300, 18.160 and 21.360 MHz. The move to adopt these frequencies made at the recent IARU Region 3 Conference, follows similar decisions at earlier IARU Region 1 and Region 2 Conferences.
CoA are not spot frequencies, but a starting point + or – 5kHz, are not the only frequencies to be used, and are not mode specific and should be considered as being 'all modes'.
I know most will know this but for the sake of easy access I've put them here.
Good luck and well wishes to those being impacted.
