[600MRG] Any Canadians heard on the band?

Steve,

Just FYI for those who may be curious: Unless there has been a recent 
change, Canada has not traditionally permitted 2-way contact between 
their Amateur stations and U.S. Experimental service stations. The issue 
came up some time ago regarding 2200 meter operation.

There certainly have been 2-way contacts on 600 and 2200 meters between 
U.S. Experimental and EU Amateur stations. The U.S. end is covered by 
language in some of the Experimental licenses authorizing contact with 
Amateur stations. But at the EU end, we assume that either permission 
has been obtained from the appropriate national regulatory body, or that 
the Amateur operator has decided to "wing it" and ask for forgiveness if 
called upon the carpet.

If anyone has an update on the Canadian regulatory stance, please speak 
up!

John, W1TAG
