| RSGB Band Plan (effective from 1st June 2016) | ||||
| The following band plan is largely based on that agreed at IARU Region 1 General Conferences with some local differences on | ||||
| on frequencies above 430 MHz. | ||||
| 28 MHz (10m) | Necessary | UK Usage | ||
| Bandwidth | ||||
| 28,000-28,070 kHz | 200 Hz | Telegraphy | ||
| 28,055 kHz QRS (slow telegraphy) Centre of Activity. | ||||
| 28,060 kHz QRP (low power) Centre of Activity. | ||||
| 28,070-28,120 | 500 Hz | Narrow band modes | ||
| 28,120-28,150 | 500 Hz | Narrow band modes - automatically controlled data stations (unattended) | ||
| 28,150-28,190 | 500 Hz | Narrow band modes | ||
| 28,190-28,199 | IBP - regional time shared beacons | |||
| 28,199-28,201 | IBP - world wide time shared beacons | |||
| 28,201-28,225 | IBP - continuous-duty beacons | |||
| 28,225-28,300 | 2.7 kHz | All modes - beacons | ||
| 28,300-28,320 | 2.7 kHz | All modes - automatically controlled data stations (unattended) | ||
| 28,320-29,000 | 2.7 kHz | All modes | ||
| 28,330 kHz - Digital Voice centre of activity | ||||
| 28,360 kHz - QRP Centre of Activity. | ||||
| 28,680 kHz - Image Centre of Activity. | ||||
| 29,000-29,100 | 6 kHz | All modes | ||
| 29,100-29,200 | 6 kHz | All modes - FM simplex - 10 kHz channels | ||
| 29,200-29,300 | 6 kHz | All modes - automatically controlled data stations (unattended) | ||
| 29,270 kHz UK Internet voice gateway - unattended | ||||
| 29,280 kHz UK Internet voice gateway - unattended | ||||
| 29,290 kHz UK Internet voice gateway - unattended | ||||
| 29,300-29,510 | 6 kHz | Satellite links | ||
| 29,510-29,520 | Guard channel | |||
| 29,520-29,590 | 6 kHz | All modes - FM repeater inputs (RH1-RH8) | ||
| 29,600 | 6 kHz | All modes - FM calling channel | ||
| 29,610 | 6 kHz | All modes - FM simplex repeater (parrot) - input and output | ||
| 29,620-29,700 | 6 kHz | All modes - FM repeater outputs (RH1-RH8) | ||
| LICENCE NOTES: Amateur and Amateur Satellite Service - Primary User: 26dBW permitted | ||||
| Beacons may be established for D.F. competitions except within 50km of NGR SK985640 (Waddington) | ||||
| Notes to the Band Plan | ||||
| ITU-R Recommendation SM.328 (extract) | ||||
| Necessary bandwidth: For a given class of emission, the width of the frequency band which is just sufficient to | ||||
| ensure the transmission of information at the rate and with the quality required under specified conditions. | ||||
| The use of Amplitude Modulation (AM) is acceptable in the all modes segments but users are asked to consider | ||||
| adjacent channel activity when selecting operating frequencies. | ||||
| Foundation and Intermediate Licence holders are advised to check their licences for the permitted power limits and | ||||
| conditions applicable to their class of licence. | ||||
