May 432 and Above EME Newsletter

The May issue of the free amateur radio 432 MHz and Above EME
Newsletter mentions the impact of WiFi on Japanese EME operation

It says:
"As discussed in past NLs, our 13 cm allocations, no matter where we
are located, will be difficult to maintain and are subject to attack
by commercial interests. Mike (JH1KRC) writes that the JARL frequency
board would like to renew their band plan (the JARL plan for the legal
frequency allocation), and has requested public opinion on a frequency
change.

Specifically it is the JA 13 cm EME band that is being considered for
relocation. It appears that the present JA 2424 EME band may be
totally covered in the near future by WiFi/wireless LAN services
worldwide. Thus, JA EMEers are considering having their EME 13 cm
frequency allocation moved to 2400.

They would like to hear from you on the interference present at your
location on the present (2424) band and the new (2400) proposed band.
Are these bands clean or jammed?  Please send this and any other
related information to Mike email: jh1krc[at]syd.odn.ne.jp by the last
week of May, 2013."
