In accordance with Item 8.4 of Summary Record of the meeting between representatives of the Telecommunication Administrations of the Russian Federation and Republic of Estonia ETSA has a plan to use the frequency band 694-790 MHz for services other than digital television broadcasting starting in second half of 2017. In this regard ETSA consider s it appropriate to suspend the coordination o f 694-790 MHz of appointments (channels 49-60) because a coordination of these stations should be bound to the 700 MHz coordination discussions and equal access to spectrum . Another way is to find a replacement for assignment SANKT PETERBURG ch.59 (ADD) by using frequency resources below 700 MHz band . We are ready for open discussion. Yours sincerely, Alo Einla Head of Frequency Management Department Vladimir Jakovlev + 372 667 2123; e-mail: v ladimir.jakovlev @tja.ee
