After a lengthy public consultation and subsequent review period Costa Rica has published a set of changes to its National Frequency Allocations.

The changes are designed to bring the plan up to date and support new and emerging uses of the radio spectrum within the country.

The most significant changes to the 'free use' bands are :

The 76 GHz to 81 GHz band has been modified to conform to the recommendations in UIT-R M.1452 and UIT-R M.2057. As such the allowed power outputs have been increased from 30 dBm to 55dBm.

The  requirements of the 6 GHz band have been modified to facilitate the use of Wifi 6E.
