2. CIS countries activities in preparation for RRC-04/05

3. RRC 04/05 preparation activities in CIS countries -Regional DVB-T planning in channels 61- 69 (multilateral agreement Nida-2002) -Preparation of existing and planned broadcasting stations data for extended planning area -DVB-T planning criteria investigations and test trials

4. In CIS countries RRC 04/05 preparation activity leaded by Regional Commonwealth in the Field of Communications (RCC) Main RCC function: to improve cooperation between Member States in field of broadcasting and communication services implementation Activities (broadcasting area): developing common planning principles and agreements

5. Main Principles: - Allotment areas 100 km x 100 km (approximate average size). Coordinates of the allotment border points were presented by administrations. - Procedure for conversion of allotments into assignments for television broadcasting services developed basing on the principles of Chester-97 Agreement. - Single coverage. Participating administrations: Belarus, Bulgaria, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Russian Federation, Slovakia, Sweden, Turkey and Ukraine
