ARLA/CLUSTER: Federação Russa reconhece as Licenças CEPT a partir de 2009.

[João Gonçalves Costa]

CEPT licensing for Russia on the cards.

Russia may be on the verge of signing on to the pan-European CEPT ham radio licensing scheme.

According to information supplied by Mitch Wolfson, DJ0QN, a working committee in that nation recently held a workshop to prepare a draft recommendation to the State Commission on radio frequencies. In it, the committee recommends joining the T/T 61-01 agreement for reciprocal licensing in 2009.

The only objection came from those concerned with issues of national security, but the proposal worked out seems to satisfy Russia's Federal Security Service and it's expected that the proposal will move forward into the Russian rule making process.

Russia to go for CEPT Novice

It looks as though the Russian Federation may join the CEPT Amateur Radio Novice reciprocal agreement as well as CEPT Class 1.

The CEPT Novice is the equivalent of UK Intermediate and many European nations have signed up to it allowing their licence holders to operate Amateur Radio when visiting signatory countries. CEPT Class 1 is equivalent to UK Advance.

The Soyuz Radiolyubiteley Rossii (SRR) website says:
