That bothered me, too, until I looked down the far right column, shows part
97 and part 90 for 1900-2000. its typical - totally obscure!
bottom line is the three left columns - the international allocations -
region 1 does not have use of 1800-1810, and is limited to 1810-1850, this
is the significant limitation on the band - at least the table says that
amateurs are the sole occupant of 1810-1850 - (and if you believe that,
send me the check for the bridge!)
Region 2 amateurs are primary in 1800-1850 with no co users, primary in
1850-2000 with many additional users
Region 3 amateurs appear to be primary with many additional users for all
of 1800-2000
The right half is what the FCC did with it
1800-1900 amateur appears to be primary and the sole occupant
1900-2000 Radiolocation is primary and part 90 is secondary and amateurs
are third
this is interpreted by the order of the entries, not from the detail of the
rules, and it is consistent with my understanding all along
