New 40 MHz ham radio band sought in USA

ARRL report a Petition for Rulemaking asks the FCC to create a new 40 MHz
(8-Meter) amateur radio band

The ARRL say:

The FCC has put on public notice for comment a Petition for Rulemaking
(RM-11843) that seeks the creation of a new 8-meter Amateur Radio
allocation on a secondary basis. The Petition suggests the new band could
be centered on an industrial-scientific-medical (ISM) segment somewhere
between 40.51 and 40.70 MHz. The spectrum between 40 and 41 MHz is
currently allocated to the Federal Government and, as such, within the
purview of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration
(NTIA).

ARRL member *Michelle Bradley, KU3N*, of Maryland, filed the petition in
May on behalf of REC Networks, which she founded and described in the
Petition as “a leading advocate for a citizen’s access to spectrum,�
including Amateur Radio spectrum.

“REC feels that the time is right for the Commission to open a Notice of
Inquiry and eventually a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, and in cooperation
with the NTIA, this new band opportunity can be realized to spark the next
generation of ‘makers’ in the fields of science, technology, education, and
math (STEM), especially women and girls,� Bradley told the FCC in the
Petition. “The more opportunities we give to make things, the more
opportunities we have to build a pool of experts in STEM, right here at
home.�
