[600MRG] 639m Access: Part 5 or Part 97?

[Warren K2ORS]

John et al.,

     Look up WE2XVM, DX Engineering has an Experimental license and can 
run 10kW carrier from 1.8-54MHz on a non-interference basis.

     Many commercial outfits especially military contractors and vehicle 
developers have experimental licenses for EMI testing that overlap 
HF/VHF/UHF/microwave ham bands.

Of course any objections could be aired during the comment period but I can't see why any one of us would have an objection.  Most of us have asked for spectrum larger than the 472-479 band so in effect we would be notching out that piece of band.  Those that had asked only for 472-479 would not longer be able to operate under part 5 rules.

Has the flurry of Part 5 applications for access to this part of the spectrum had some bearing on the FCC consideration for the Part 97 (Amateur) allocation? As someone pointed out, Parts 5 and 97 are totally separate in the FCC regulations. Is it possible that the Part 5 license activity has delayed the Part 97 request as an attempt to consider possible conflicts between future uses of this spectrum?
