====== The AST SpaceMobile Battle Continues ======

<blockquote>
The amateur radio community has achieved a significant but limited victory in protecting the 430-440 MHz band from commercial satellite encroachment. AST SpaceMobile’s request for broad commercial use of amateur spectrum has been restricted to emergency-only operations for a maximum of 24 hours and only 20 satellites—but the fight isn’t over.
