More about us. Note Any service mentioned in column 1 of the Table is specified in the Radio Regulations and may be defined differently to a service of the same name in column 2 of the Table.
Note The functions mentioned above will normally be provided within the service in which the space station is operating. Note 1 For references to Commonwealth Acts, see section 10 of the Acts Interpretation Act ; and see also subsection 13 1 of the Legislation Act for the application of the Acts Interpretation Act to legislative instruments. For section 30 of the Act, the spectrum is divided into the frequency bands set out in column 2 of the Table.
Note Column 1 of the Table is the Table of Frequency Allocations set out in the Radio Regulations, and is only included in the Table to allow for comparison with column 2. Mobile except aeronautical mobile R. This means that an aeronautical mobile R service is not part of the secondary mobile service. Note Services are listed in the Table in an order consistent with the Radio Regulations. They are not listed to suggest any order of priority. If a frequency band is specified, in column 2 of the Table, for a primary service, the frequency band may also be specified for a secondary service in a frequency band plan.
Note See sections 5, 7 and 12 for provisions about primary service and secondary service. A service operating under a spectrum licence is taken to be a primary service unless the spectrum licence specifies that it is a secondary service. If a frequency band is part of a frequency band plan, the frequency band must be used only:. Note A frequency band plan must not be inconsistent with the Spectrum Plan see subsection 32 3 of the Act. A station in the land mobile service may communicate with stations of the aeronautical mobile service in a frequency band used for the aeronautical mobile service if the purpose of the station in the land mobile service is to support the aeronautical mobile service.
This is the major usage of the station. Under paragraph 10 2 a the space station may also be used for radiodetermination of the positions of the buoys, although this would not be a specified service for the space station.
Under paragraph 10 2 b , the radiodetermination function of the space station could also be used to track an animal or vehicle carrying a transmitter. The use of this transmitter would also be permitted under paragraph 10 2 b.
Note It is the intention of the ACMA that a frequency band used, in accordance with subsection 10 3 , for a broadcasting service will be subject to the conditions that would apply to a specified service. Note This requirement appears in section 10 and some footnotes to the Table in Parts 3 and 4.
Note As well as subsection 11 3 , the Radio Regulations set out requirements for the coordination or notification of services mentioned in those regulations. Note 1 A service to which this Spectrum Plan applies may not claim protection from harmful interference caused by a situation, or an activity, that is exempt, under Division 4 of Part 1.
Note 2 Other levels of interference protection are, or may be, provided for under the Act. Column Region 1. Region 2. Region 3. Australian Table of Allocations. Below 8. Not allocated. Maritime mobile Maritime mobile. Amateur 67A. They require additional equipment such as a GPS receiver or wireless Ethernet router for full functionality.
Some networks offer direct contact via a telephone interconnect with various government, corporate or private services if needing assistance, including the Royal Flying Doctors Service.
Simply Selcall the required service to connect. Numerous receive only frequencies may be programmed into handsets free of charge. They include access to broadcasts from BBC world service, Voice of America, Amateur radio, and time and weather updates. A useful way of getting news, weather and music in the bush. The handset is the microphone and interface for the radio.
The display allows users to quickly scroll through channels or access the address list of base station selcall numbers. The Junction Box allows additional accessories to be connected, including linking with a computer or GPS.
The handset and speaker connect to this. The brains of the radio is the RF Unit with cradle. The Junction box and antenna connect to this. A heavy-duty power cable with inline fuse gives it the juice required for transmitting at Watts.
I mounted it at the rear of my Defender on a custom bracket, to keep it high and dry during river crossings. An Automatic Tuning Whip Antenna is the easiest to operate, with the radio controlling the tuning. These, however, cost significantly more and could potentially fail due to internal moving parts.
Ideally, service every five years for ultimate reliability. Codan offers the , or newer low profile Automatic Tuning Whip Antennas. A lower cost reliable option is a Multitap antenna. These require manual selection of the desired frequency, by plugging a wire into different locations on the antenna. You must purchase the correct multitap to suit your licenced frequencies. Regulations for mounting of antennas vary from state to state. Bullbar mounted autotune antennas are at a higher risk of damage from impact, rendering them useless in an accident.
Ideally, rear mount the antenna where possible to avoid damage and legal issues. Check with your state transport authority for more information. You must keep your membership current to remain licenced. Each network offers different options, so pick one that suits your communication requirements. I am a member of VKS as they have the most base stations of any of the networks, ensuring Australia wide coverage. Daily scheduled calls allow members to make contact with base stations for information, or just listen in to hear the location of other members.
An HF-Tel direct dial radio telephone option, allowing phone calls to Australian mobiles or landlines via your radio, is also available. It will take some time to become competent operating your radio. There is greater complexity involved than a satellite phone. When calling a base station, the correct frequency for the time of day and distance must be selected.
