For the last few weeks, there has been plenty of discussion about the French proposal to try and share the 144-146 MHz amateur radio band with 'aeronautical services'.
It was announced today that this threat has now been removed at a CEPT meeting in Turkey. This happened "in parallel to a number of other proposals being adopted to support aeronautical interests."
While this is good news, it is surely a wake up call that no amateur radio band can really be considered safe and the various national and international amateur radio associations need to be ever vigilant.

Congratulations to Don Beattie G3BJ on having the threat to 2 metres shelved. He was G3OZF when I worked in Marconi Company , Chelmsford , Essex many years ago . Many thanks Don !
