Agreed. 60GHz appears to be allocated for fixed inter-satellite communications (probably for this reason): https://transition.fcc.gov/oet/spectrum/table/fccta

  I read some of the above PDF... what's amazing to me is that a whole bunch of names of foreign countries pop-up over and over again in this document, specifically with assigned frequency ranges, as if the FCC is regulating frequency ranges in foreign countries... Before reading this, it seemed self-evident (to me) that the FCC's regulatory power does not extend to those foreign countries... Although, perhaps the FCC's regulatory powers do in fact extend to those countries via international agreements and/or treaties? Does someone know? How does that work?

    If you re-read the document you will see that there is a note regarding the international frequency ranges indicating that they are taken from the 2016 edition of the ITU Radio Regulations.

      Interesting! So ITU is sort of the international standards organization for radio frequency bands... makes sense!
