Besides, information was provided and commented about the coming World Radiocommunications Conference 2015, to be held in Geneva, Switzerland, where there will be a&nbsp;discussion about the potential allocation of a&nbsp;band of frequencies around 5&nbsp;MHz. Despite Inter-American and European proposals, it will be a&nbsp;tough battle that must be fought in Geneva, for which the active participation of member societies with their regulators is essential, so that the delegates of such organizations to Geneva support the proposals.<br> Another event that was widely commented was the next Region 2&nbsp;General Assembly, to be held in Vi\u00f1a del Mar, Chile, in the second half of October, 2016, an event for which there are good expectations. Besides the Assembly, there will be an emergency communications workshop and a&nbsp;seminar for member societies, an event that will be held for the first time in the region.<br> Given that Bogota was the venue of the meeting, Region 2&nbsp;officers were able to meet with officers of the Liga Colombiana de Radioaficionados (<span class=\"caps\">LCRA<\/span>) to exchange impressions and to hear about their plans and expectations.
