NOTES

1. For equipment intended to be operated outside the US&P foreign disclosure authority is required to coordinate and obtain radio frequency spectrum support from those countries where this equipment may operate. Action must be initiated to obtain foreign disclosure authority in accordance with Military Department regulations and policies for the release of appropriate data to the proposed host nations.

2. Do not complete this page unless you are preparing a foreign coordination version of the DD Form 1494. A foreign coordination version of this form is treated as a completely separate document from a US coordination version, and in general the information content will be different.

3. Frequency allocation processing for US coordination can be initiated without submitting a foreign coordination version of the DD Form 1494. In any case, submission of the US coordination version should not be delayed simply because a foreign coordination version has not been completed.
