In region 1 the frequency 1800-1810 is still allocated to Radiolocation,
not to Amateur.
However it is always possible that individual countries create different
allocations.
Similar to the upper frequency.
1810-1850 is primary Amateur.
1850-2000 is secondary Amateur.
Some countries allow the complete allocation, some have restrictions.
And some even have restrictions with individual exceptions.
It is impossible for contests organizers to keep up with all those
restrictions and exceptions.
