The amateur radio service in Germany can now use the frequency range from 5351.5 - 5366.5 kHz, as the Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) announced today in its communication no. 1699/2016 (https://is.gd/Gunhb3 - 20.12.2016).
This regulation is done in agreement with the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) and the Federal Ministry of Defense (BMVg). However, this provision applies only to holders of Class A.
During operation, no interferences at radio stations of another radio service may be caused and there is no protection from interference by radio stations of other radio services. The maximum effective radiation power must not exceed 15 watts EIRP. The maximum allowed bandwidth of a transmission must not exceed 2.7 kHz.
When using the frequency range 5351.5 - 5366.5 kHz, all other provisions of the AFuG and AFuV must be complied with. It is important to use this regulation sensitively, to avoid disturbances and to use the maximum power only when it is considered essential to maintain a radio connection or for experimental purposes.
With the entry into force of the early adaptation of the frequency regulation and Annex 1 of the amateurs regulation (AFuV), which permit the use of the abovementioned frequency range within the meaning of section 5 (3) of the amateur radio law (AFuG) and section 9 para 2 of the AFuV in the medium term and to the decision of the 2015 World Radio Conference, this regulation becomes devoid of purpose.
