1.5 MICROWAVE MANAGERS SUB-COMMITTEE (Dec 93)<br />

At the <strong>IARU</strong> <strong>Region</strong> I Conference in Warsaw (1975) the following recommendation was adopted :<br />

<strong>VHF</strong> managers will stimulate national interest in the 1 - 30 GHz microwave bands. In addition,<br />

DARC will direct special attention to the 2.3 GHz band and RSGB to the 10 GHz band by<br />

publishing information on the design of suitable equipment and on results achieved on these<br />

bands.<br />

At the meeting of the <strong>VHF</strong> Working Group in Amsterdam (October 1976) it was agreed that all societies<br />

should nominate a person to act as focal point for the reception and distribution of microwave information<br />

and material.The names of the persons to act in this way should be sent to the Secretary of <strong>IARU</strong> <strong>Region</strong><br />

I. Furthermore, any changes in focal points should immediately be advised to the Secretary of <strong>Region</strong> I. All<br />

focal points would investigate the possibility of starting microwave columns in the journal of their national<br />

society.<br />

Since the above recommendations were adopted, in several societies these focal points have developed<br />

into full-fledged Microwave <strong>Managers</strong> running their own microwave column in their society's journal.<br />

During sessions of the <strong>IARU</strong> <strong>Region</strong> 1 <strong>VHF</strong>/UHF/Microwaves Committee at <strong>Region</strong> 1 Conferences as well<br />

as meetings of the <strong>VHF</strong>/UHF/Microwaves Committee in the years between Conferences a sub-committee<br />

of Microwave <strong>Managers</strong> pre-advises ( when requested by the meeting ) on matters concerning microwave<br />

frequencies. For this purpose the frequency of 1 GHz has been adopted as the lower microwave boundary<br />

(Brighton, 1981).<br />
