The deadline to file comments on the 60-meter band proposal has been extended
by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to November 28, 2023. Replies to
comments will be due December 28, 2023. The public comment period was
originally to close October 30, 2023.

ARRL  The National Association for Amateur Radio¿[1] strongly encourages all
amateurs to submit comments expressing support to the FCC for the current 100 W
ERP power limit (instead of reducing the power limit to 15 W EIRP) and
continuing secondary access to the current channels.

ARRL has assembled a web page with instructions on how to submit your comments,
as well as background information on the issue: www.arrl.org/60-meter-band[2]. 

About Amateur Radio and ARRL 

Amateur Radio Service licensees use their training, skills, and equipment to
practice radio communications and develop radio technology. Amateur Radio
Operators volunteer their qualifications and equipment for communications duty
in public service and during emergencies. Amateur Radio also provides a basis
for hands-on STEM education and pathways to careers. 

ARRL  The National Association for Amateur Radio[3]¿ was founded in 1914 as The
American Radio Relay League, and is a noncommercial organization of Radio
Amateurs. ARRL numbers within its ranks the vast majority of active Radio
Amateurs (or "hams") in the US and has a proud history of achievement as the
standard-bearer in promoting and protecting Amateur Radio. For more information
