VERON request for temporary use of 40MHz in the Netherlands


     It has been a few years ago I wrote about 40MHz in the Netherlands. So far no one here has made a request to the local authorities to have a permit for 40MHz use, as far as I know. But now the VERON is researching to make a request for a temporary 8m band use. They will request 3KHz of space and a power of 5W ERP. I guess the 3KHz will be around the FT8 frequency used on 40MHz (40680KHz?). I'm not shure if and when the request will be made. I hope it will be this year. I'm really interested. It will give some new experimental opportunities.
