Telecommunication regulators in The Netherlands have scaled back
considerably the country's formerly liberal 60m privileges. Since December
2015, amateurs in The Netherlands have had access to a 100kHz wide band at
5MHz, with a maximum power of 100W. Starting on 1 April 2017, the
allocation has been changed to the global secondary 15kHz-wide allocation,
5351.5kHz to 5366.5kHz, with a maximum of 15W EIRP.
