Geneva Wave Plan (1984)
The Geneva wave plan is the wave plan in which the operation of the radio stations in the VHF range was specified.
The Geneva Wave Plan was drawn up in 1984 and came into force on July 1, 1987; it replaced the Stockholm Agreement of 1961. The central point of the Geneva Wave Plan was the expansion of the VHF band by 8 MHz in the 100-108 MHz range, which was previously only used in a few countries for radio broadcasts because of aviation and military radio. Due to the denser occupancy of the new frequency range, two to three new nationwide transmitter networks could be planned. Due to reservations made by aviation radio, only the range up to 104 MHz could initially be put into operation at full power; only later could the range up to 108 MHz be used at full power in accordance with the wave plan.
