Regulators in Spain are allowing radio amateurs there to exchange their current longer-format call signs for permanent 2 x 1 call signs. To be eligible, applicants must have held a licence issued by Spanish authorities without any sanctions and have at least 15 years of experience in international amateur radio.<\/p>\n
Germany is again permitting amateurs to use the 70.150-70.200MHz segment of the 4m band until the end of 2020. All conditions are the same as last year.<\/p>\n
If you would like to support the RSGB at a senior level but are unable to commit to a full three years as a Board Director, please contact the Nominations Committee with an outline of your skills. This Committee can suggest Members for co-option to the RSGB Board<\/strong><\/a> or to act as a Board adviser for a certain period and for specific projects. If this fits your skills and time, please email the Company Secretary, who is also the Nominations Committee Chair, via company.secretary@rsgb.org.uk<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In New Zealand, the trial licence scheme for the 5MHz band has been extended for a further six months. It will now continue until 24 July 2020, during which time the authorities hope to work out a more permanent solution. Conditions of use remain unchanged from earlier in the trial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Regulators in Spain are allowing radio amateurs there to exchange their current longer-format call signs for permanent 2 x 1 call signs.
