y the GFC organization at the HFCC Conference. In doing so the former
requirements of the TRW and RAM organizations which were duplicated should
have been ignored within the process of the HFCC Conference.
"To avoid confusion and misunderstanding in the work of the HFCC
conference the delegation of Russia requested the HFCC Steering Board to
delete the RAM and TRW requirements with the use of technical facilities
to broadcast radio programs from the territory of the Russian Federation
from the list of the requirements to be coordinated.
Answer of the SB for the HFCC Conference Minutes:
"The HFCC Steering Board thanked Alexander Stadinchuk for the detailed
explanation for the duplication of requirements of RAM and TRW via
facilities in Russia by GFC. However, the SB stated that it cannot accept
the request to delete the corresponding RAM and TRW requirements for those
transmissions from the territory of the Russian Federation. The reason for
this is that both RAM and TRW are members of HFCC and the SB does not have
the authority to delete requirements of any member. The SB states that the
duplication of requirements significantly hampers the informal coordination
process. On this occasion the Steering Board of the HFCC
suggests to the Administration of the Russian Federation to work with the
three FMOs on the territory of the Russian Federation with the aim of
eliminating the duplicated requirements and to resolve this difficult
problem. As RAM and TRW are not[!!] present at the joint HFCC/ASBU/ABU-HFC
meeting held in Kuala Lumpur, the SB will inform them of this matter."
Coordination flowed smoothly all during the week, with no computer or
network anomalies. Much interaction was noted among all members during the
coordination times.
For the first time that I remember, no group dinner was held at the
Conference, although a Friday afternoon tour was arranged, which included
trips to the 500 metre Communications Tower, as well as KL's skyline Twin
Towers. The tour also included a visit to Malaysian radio studios and a
trip to a local group of craft shops.
During the conference, the Group of Experts met (Wednesday) and offered
the following information on the Friday Plenary (closing) statements:
G. of E. documents will soon be placed on the website for everyone to
review.
Regarding the new software showing target ID by polygon, the testing is
going well. It will offer clearer and better collision calculation.
Antenna design frequency, used in the requirements file, must be filled
in. It is used for calculation of collisions. A warning message will be
displayed whenever a requirements file missing this information is
entered.
More information regarding a new antenna program will be coming in future.
Older DOS versions of the plotting software should not be used; consider
using newer software.
