Thanks for forwarding my earlier message, Ed.
That's an interesting list of countries, and I hope they can "hold the
line" to keep 433.92MHz a ham frequency. However, since Japan is not on
the list, and that frequency is liable to be used in imports from Europe
and the USA, I don't hold out much hope for the long term...
