Update on SRD – Recommendation 70 -03 • Draft June 2020 version of Rec 70 -03. changes to; – Main Text. Modernisation of text. – Annex 1. Removal of power density restriction at 433 MHz. RED-CA May 2020

Update on SRD – Recommendation 70 -03 • SRDMG continue development of the 8 th update of the EU Decision for SRD – Guidance letter DG CNECT/B 4/SRD 8 dated 16 July 2019 – The draft of the CEPT report will be finalised at the September 2020 meeting of SRDMG with the aim that ECC approve this draft for Public Consultation at their meeting in November 2020. • WPT - SRDMG have developed a set of questions that need to be answered before any recommendation of WPT can be developed. RED-CA May 2020

Below 9 k. Hz • SRDMG (22 -24 April 2020) developed a proposal to amend the Implementation Status options in EFIS. This will enable CEPT Administrations to correctly show where Below 9 k. Hz apparatus can be used. • WG FM in June 2020 will decide on this proposal. If agreed, the ECO will amend the implementation options in EFIS so that CEPT Administrations can accurately show whether they permit the use or not of Below 9 k. Hz apparatus. RED-CA May 2020
