Note 1: Band Access
In Australia, Dept. of Defence radars operate on 1300.0 MHz. Amateurs
must observe a gaurd band of 5MHz (from 1295-1300MHz) in the vicinity
of these installations.
Note 2: Beacons
Beacon Frequencies are allocated on a call area basis.
eg VK1: 1296.410-1296.419, VK2: 1296.420-1296.429 etc. Parallel beacon
frequencies are also allocated at 1270MHz for future use. Beacon spacing
is 2KHz.
Note 3: Linear Translators
Inband Inputs: 1296.625, 1296.650, 1296.675
Inband Outputs: 1270.625, 1270.650, 1270.675
Crossband to bands below 23cm: 1270.750-1271.000
Crossband to bands above 23cm: 1271.000-1272.000
Note 4: FM Repeaters
Channel spacing is 25KHz and offset is +20MHz. The following repeater
channels are allocated:

Note 5: SSB & FM Call Channel
Be aware that 1296.100 & 1294.000 are national call channels. Contact
should be established on this channel and then the operators should
QSY. Where an FM repeater pair is not in use in the local area, it too is
then available for FM simplex working, but users should be aware of DX
conditions that may trigger distant repeaters.
