Beja People

 

The 9 MHz band band has many vacant channels, as observed from here in Melbourne during our pre-sunrise window on Feb 20 local.

 

Of concern, however. is the continuing of this spectrum for disruptive obnoxious wideband, MEGAFLOP failed-technology DRM transmissions, causing causing havoc to conventional DSB-AM services, up to 10 kHz either side of nominal centre DRM frequencies. Seems that these transmission providers have never heard of SPECTRAL MASKING! There are ITU Design Specifications for masking and bandwidth limitations

 

This writer believes that these DRM transmissions should NOT be authorized by the HFCC in the exclusive HF broadcasting bands, and should be shifted to the wide-open spaces outside of these bands, where they can play sandcastles without disturbing legitimate users of this spectrum.

# The Beja language is spoken by about 1.2 million people in parts of Egypt, Sudan and Eritrea. It is also known as Bedawi, Bedauye or To Bedawie, and is generally classified as a North Cushitic language, although some scholars believe it belongs to its own branch of the Afro-Asiatic language family.
