New 30THz band used for experimental Amateur radio communications

VK3CV 30THz radio amateur microwave

In November 2020, Andrew VK3CV / WQ1S and Karl VK3LN made a contact in a previously un-explored section of the upper electromagnetic spectrum at 30 Terahertz (THz) which is 30,000 GHz.

A two way contact over 60 metres distance was achieved with 5×5 signals received each way. The contact is believed to be the first ever in this band anywhere in the world.

CONGRATULATIONS!
