Or maybe not. This other report
<https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/360717175/government-doesnt-really-know-whats-going-rural-isp-boss-after-warship-blocked-signals>
talks about systems used by ISPs:

    Harrison said the systems acted as expected - to "vacate channels"
    for military or aviation radar. But he said internet and phone
    providers had been asking for years for the spectrum to be
    increased so different groups were not forced to share
    frequencies.

That doesn’t sound like unlicensed spectrum to me.
