ARLA/CLUSTER: Bélgica altera potencias permitidas nas categorias de amador

Belgium Foundation get more power on HF

On Friday, May 4, the Belgium regulator BIPT announced power increases that could permit amateur radio Foundation holders to run 100 watt transceivers on HF.

The change came following a request from the Belgium National Society the UBA. The increase in power is to 50 watts, however, the UBA has said previously that the "3dB Rule" will mean Foundation holders can use standard 100 watt transceivers.

The Foundation HF allocations are, however, being reduced slightly on most bands. Previously Foundation holders had access to all amateur frequencies from 3.5 to 30 MHz.

This summary of the changes has been published on the UBA website:

For holders of a license HAREC [Equivalent to UK Full/Adanced]:

Increasing the transmission power to 200W (previously 150W) and 1500W (1000W was) subject to notification, Expansion of the segment with the 4m range from 70.2 to 70.4 MHz with 10W.

For holders of a license ON2 [Novice/Intermediate]: Increasing the transmission power to 50W (was 10W).
