There seems to be a little confusion about the Kansas Band Plan,
so I have prepared the following information to provide up to
date info on the band plan for the State of Kansas for 2-meters,
222 MHz, and 440 MHz. Please forward any questions concerning
the plan to your section KDCC representative:

    NEKS - WZ0M @ WZ0M
    SEKS - NU0Z @ N0RLR
    NCKS - vacant
    SCKS - W0EB @ W0CFY
    NWKS - WA0VJR @ WA0VJR
    SWKS - WD5IUZ @ WD5IUZ

    Coordinator - WK5M @ WK5M.#NEKS.KS.USA.NOAM

This band plan was developed in 1991 in cooperation with the
Kansas Amateur Repeater Council and modified in June 1995. The
responsible organization for coordination is the Kansas Packet
Group through a committee named the Kansas Digital Coordinating
Committee (KDCC). The appointed chairman of the KDCC is Karl
Medcalf (WK5M).

2-meter band-plan

144.91 - As needed

144.93 - DX spotting systems

144.95 - TCP/IP

144.97 - DX Cluster (local access)

144.99 - BBS user access frequency

145.01 - Local area network

145.03 - Direct connect communication (Nodes and permanent
digipeaters are discouraged on this frequency.)

145.05 - Local area network

145.07 - Medium speed InterLAN network (up to 9600 baud). Local
area network if no requirement for 2-meter LAN in the area.

145.09 - State-wide EMERGENCY communcations channel.
Nodes/permanent digipeaters on this frequency should be
designated with a primary purpose of EMERGENCY use.

145.61 - BBS user access frequency

145.63 - TCP/IP users

145.65 - Local area network

145.67 - Conference bridges

145.69 - Local area network

145.71 - Unassigned

145.73 - Unassigned

145.75 - Unassigned

145.77 - Unassigned

145.79 - APRS Operation

----------------------------------------

220 MHz plan

223.40 - User access (BBS, DX Cluster, Chat node, etc)

223.42 - Secondary user access

223.44 - Open use

223.47 - 9600 baud or lower inter-lan (primary)

223.55 - 9600 baud or lower inter-lan (secondary)

----------------------------------------

440 MHz plan

430.050 - Experimental use (i.e. 56KB, other protocols, etc)

430.150 - Secondary backbone (19.2 KB and above)

430.250 - DX cluster backbone (secondary)

430.350 - State-wide high-speed backbone (secondary)

430.450 - Experimental use

430.550 - Primary state-wide high-speed backbone

430.650 - TCP/IP backbone (secondary)

430.850 - DX cluster backbone (primary if required)

430.950 - TCP/IP backbone

446.025 - Inter-lan

446.050 - 9600 baud or lower backbone (secondary)

446.075 - Emergency Communications

446.100 - 9600 baud or lower backbone (primary)

446.125 - Local access (BBS, DX Cluster, Chat Node, etc)

446.150 - TCP/IP

446.175 - Inter-lan
