SatelliteToday.com: Your Source Of Information About The C-band Debate

[8/21/07 – Satellite Today] Satellite operators use C-band to provide essential services such as TV transmissions, distance learning, telemedicine and disaster recovery, and in some countries C-band spectrum serves as the core communications network.

This is a key issue on the agenda for the International Telecommunication Union’s World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-07) and the satellite industry needs to be made aware of the situation.
