2300 MHz (13cm) Inf4ormation

This page is devoted to this individual band. Click here for the RAC Bandplan for this band. See also the  links that apply to several or all VHF, UHF and Microwave bands.

This page is dedicated to stirring up interest in what may well be the next amateur radio band we lose.

We can use this band for satellite communications, communications to, and between, manned spacecraft, and moonbounce communications, just to name a few. Line of site land based communications is easy, but beyond the horizon communications is a challenge, and there is plenty of room for experimentation.

Have a look at More Operating and Technical information, our Microwave Page, and the RAC 2.4 GHz Bandplan.

Some Canadian and US amateurs are using 2.4 GHz. The ARRL have a data base of activity on the VHF, UHF, and Microwave bands on their web site. Or you can visit VE6NTT's Western Canadian Weak Signal Registry
