Main frequency bands for amateur radio in Russia

The frequencies in Russia are appointed by the GKRC - the State Commission on Radio Frequencies.
The first document is the general frequency distribution table and the second - the current decision on the amateur radio service, which specifies the table for specific frequency bands and types of radiation.

Distribution of frequencies KV and VHF

(in accordance with the table of the frequency distribution of the Russian Federation)

Frequency strip	Dimension	Basic
1810-1850	KHC	Primary
3500-3650	KHC	Primary
3650-3800	KHC	secondary
7000-7200	KHC	Primary
10100-10150	KHC	secondary
14000-14350	KHC	Primary
18068-18168	KHC	secondary
21000-21450	KHC	Primary
24890-24990	KHC	secondary
28000-29700	KHC	Primary
144-146	MGC	Primary
430-440	MGC	secondary
1260-1300	MGC	secondary
10-10.5	GGC	secondary

In all these frequencies - the joint use of the spectrum.

The primary and secondary basis determine the priority of a particular service in this section of the spectrum of radio waves.
In the case of amateur radio, the primary basis means that other services (mobile, land mobile, radio navigation, etc.) cannot require protection against interference from amateur radio. The secondary base is the opposite. The exit on the air of the radio station of the primary foundation can supplant a radio station of the secondary basis from the spectrum without consequences for itself from the control body - Roskomnadzor:

A secondary radio frequency radio frequencies should not cause a harmful interference with RES, using radio frequencies on the primary basis.

A list of services that can conflict on the air with amateur radio service when using the spectrum

1810-1850 kHz: mobile sea, land mobile, fixed
3650-3800 kHz: mobile, with the exception of the air mobile, fixed
7100-7200 kHz: radio broadcasting
10100-10150 kHz: fixed, mobile, with the exception of a mobile air
14250-14350 kHz: fixed
18068-18168 kHz: fixed
24890-24990 kHz: Dry movable, fixed
144-146 MHz: mobile air (OR) - air mobile service intended for communication, including a connection regarding coordination of flights mainly outside of national or international civilian air routes; (Or = OFF-ROUTE i.e. outside the routes).
430-440 MHz KHC: mobile, with the exception of the air mobile, radar, fixed
1260-1300 MHz: radar, radio navigation, radio navigation satellite (Cosmos - Earth, Cosmos - Cosmos), Space Research (Active), satellite service of the Earth (active)
10-10.5 GHz: radar, satellite service of the Earth’s study (active), mobile, fixed.

The only ranges where radio amateurs have no competitors:

28000-29700 kHz

Inside the same basis (primary and primary, secondary and secondary), frequency priorities are determined by the principle: who was the first to get up, that slippers. However, before the transmission of the radio amateur is obliged to listen to the air, and even if there are no signs of activity, go to the transfer and ask the question: "The frequency is free?" (IS this Frequency in Use?). And leave the frequency if the answer follow. If there is no answer, you can start working at this frequency.
