Response to consultation on radio spectrum management work programme2008_14Nov2007

With a view to the work programme of the RSC and the on-going work regarding the harmonisation of the radio spectrum in Europe Pearle* underlines the need to recognise the importance of this primary group of users of analogue spectrum and asks the Commission to take into consideration the cultural aspects.
Secondly, Pearle* stresses the need to safeguard some spectrum out of the range for allocation to other users. The live performance sector can only rely on the analogue spectrum.
