5.A11 In Region 1, stations in the amateur service operating on a secondary basis shall not cause harmful interference to, or claim protection from, stations of the broadcasting service. The field strength generated by an amateur station in Region 1 in the frequency band 50-52 MHz shall not exceed a calculated value of +6 dB(μV/m) at a height of 10 m above ground for more than 10% of time along the border of a country with operational analogue broadcasting stations in Region 1 and of neighbouring countries with broadcasting stations in Region 3 listed in Nos. 5.167 and 5.168. (WRC-19)
5.A11bis Except countries listed under No. 5.169, stations in the amateur service used in Region 1, in all or part of the 50-54 MHz frequency band, shall not cause harmful interference to, or claim protection from, stations of other services used in accordance with the Radio Regulations in Algeria, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Egypt, Russian Federation, Iran (Islamic Republic of), Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Libya, Uzbekistan, Palestine*, the Syrian Arab Republic, Sudan, Tunisia and Ukraine. The field strength generated by an amateur station in the frequency band 50-54 MHz shall not exceed a value of +6 dB(μV/m) at a height of 10 m above ground for more than 10% of time along the borders of the countries listed in this provision.

IARU Spectrum Requirement
The Amateur Service requires an allocation at or near 70 MHz of at least 500 kHz on a secondary basis in Region 1.
A Regional allocation is sought for Region 1, where a growing number of countries are already authorized to use all or part of the band 69.9-70.5 MHz including: Albania, Austria, Bahrain, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark (including Faroe Islands and Greenland), Estonia, Finland, Germany, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Gibraltar, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Monaco, Montenegro, Namibia, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Somalia, South Africa, Sovereign Military Order of Malta, Spain, Sweden, UAE, United Kingdom (including Gibraltar and Cyprus Sovereign Bases) and Vatican City. In addition several other countries now issue permits for amateur experimentation. Authorizations are rare outside Region 1 but include Greenland and Pakistan.
The above list of countries needs to be carefully checked
The requirement for an allocation at 70 MHz has been acknowledged by CEPT first as an Allocation Footnote EU9 which states "In a growing number of CEPT countries, parts of the band 70.0-70.5 MHz are also allocated to the Amateur service on a secondary basis." At its October 2014 meeting CEPT Working Group FM decided to change the footnote to an allocation in the European Common Allocation Table.
In countries where allocated, this band is used for local amateur communication on 24-hour basis, including radio control of objects. Tropospheric-scatter and sky-wave propagation (principally sporadic-E) are used for longer distances, as well as auroral propagation at the higher latitudes. Meteor scatter has been used for Morse code and voice communications primarily during meteor showers. Computer-based digital techniques make meteor scatter practical for distances up to 2000 km.
