Progress Report ECC #61 (and WG FM #104) revised the work item to account for the their decision to consult on a new ECC Decision (23)01 that intends to replace and withdraw ECC Decision (02)04.

ECC #62 in July 2023 published ECC Decision (23)01 On the use of the band 40.5-42.5 GHz by earth stations in the fixed-satellite service (space-to-Earth) and broadcasting satellite service and on the use of the band 42.5-43.5 GHz by earth stations in the fixed-satellite service (Earth-to-space)
