Amateur Spectrum Used for Australian Formula One Grand Prix:

Consistent with past major sporting events, such as the Sydney Olympic
games, the Melbourne Commonwealth Games and previous Formula One Grand
Prix, the ACMA will licence some organisations coming from overseas to use,
on a temporary basis, a small number of channels within the 70cm band. The
Amateur Service is a secondary user in this band and has no to claims for
protection from interference. Also one frequency in the 2 meter band is
being used. The period of temporary use will be from Wednesday 14th March
to Monday 19th of March. The WIA has a flexible attitude to use of amateur
spectrum to support these major events that show cases the operational
ability of Australian organisers.
