[AusNOG] Spectrum planning contacts for these license holders?

[John Edwards]

Hi Mike,

Generally you would talk to someone at the ACMA first, as they are the
keepers of all spectrum. Then they can setup a meeting with the affected
parties if they think it might be a problem.

This sort of thing also happens when legacy P2MP site licenses potentially
overlap with new 5G spectrum allocations, which happened in the 3.5G band.

Sometimes it involves sending a letter, don't expect quick results!

Out near Burra some of the more enthusiastic Wind Power builders used to
send letters asking for feedback about potential reflections from their
turbine blades, but I don't recall anything ever changing because of it.

John
