The International Amateur Radio Union's Region One website reports that Omani hams have been given access to part of the 6 meter band. The report attributed to A41KB says that radio amateurs in that nation can now use the 50 to 52 MHz under permit by the Omani Telecommunications Regulatory Authority. Omani hams have this access on a secondary basis to other users of the spectrum. More is on line at www.iaru-r1.org. (IARU Region 1)
