[VHFcontesting] The meaning of Radio [was: The meaning of coherence [was: VUACSeeks Input ]]

[Ev Tupis]

Within the context of the Amateur radio service, "Radio" includes the full electromagnetic spectrum that is assigned to the licensee, as long as the first stage of detection is electronic in nature.

Coherence is a non-factor.  The parallel use of any of that spectrum by other services (unlicensed, military, ISM, etc.) is a non-factor.
