The Final Acts record the international radio agreements reached at Geneva in 1979. Their frequency-allocation table includes mobile services around 900 MHz alongside existing uses: an important part of the spectrum background to GSM, before a common European system had been designed. The reader opens at PDF page 111: the spread RR8-89–RR8-90. The 890–960 MHz table is on RR8-89. This is the complete, unchanged ITU scan, published in 1980 after the 1979 conference.
