Anyone can listen on 224.080, which is the output frequency. /////////////////////////////////////////// Work Continues Towards WRC 2019: Posted: 21 Jan 2017 04:04 PM PST http://www.eham.net/articles/38480 A major change in approach for the IARU is a Matrix system introduced with specific responsibilities being taken by individuals on the team at the World Radiocommunications Conference.
