WARC-79 - 30 years and still significant !

ITU WARC-79 - an inter-governmental conference whose decisions having the force of an international treaty still enjoys a decisive influence on the development of all types of radiocommunications and broadcasting right into the 21st century.

ITU WARC-79 was the first conference in twenty years to examine and completely modify the ITU Radio Regulations (RR) that came into force on 1 January 1982 in order to meet new challenges of rapidly changing radio technology and to provide a better sharing of spectrum and orbit resources among developed and developing countries.

Agreements that regulate the worlds radio spectrum and satellite industry.
Agreements that set the standards that improve operation through cooperation.
Agreements that work hard to bridge the digital divide.
Agreements that enable ITU to be committed to connecting the world.
