The following is an excerpt from the regulations that govern amateur
radio operations in Canada.

As computer equipment isn't licenced, it would appear that a licenced
amateur radio operator has precedence on these bands.  Amateur equipment
may transmit with much higher effective radiated power levels than off
the shelf computer gear.  The reference document can be found at:

Image outputting 190 or 750 watts (the maximum depending on your
licence) into a high gain antenna that is aimed level with the ground
for long distance terrestrial or earth-moon-earth communication.  I
imagine that there may be an interference problem for some distance
along the bore site of the antenna.

   Hope this helps,
