  4. IARU Region 3 Activities (2) • IARU Region 3 Disaster Communications Committee formed in 2000 with 15 member Societies- ARRL, ARSI, CRSA, CTARL, HARTS, JARL, KARL, NZART, PARS, PNGARS, RAST, RSSL, SIRS, VARS, WIA. However, its intra-Regional activities are still in slow pace.

  5. IARU Region 3 Activities (3) • IARU Disaster Communications Advisor’s role for inter-Regional networking will be essential for the future activities of IARU.

  6. IARU Region 3 Activities (4) • Facts Sheet for 7MHz Action Plan 7. The recent earthquake and tsunami disaster in South Asia has shown that major disasters can affect many countries at the same time.  When 7 MHz was used for disaster communications, as in Dec 2004/Jan 2005, the transmissions from one country caused interference to another. Insufficient clear spectrum was available for emergency communications and nets.
