ARLA/CLUSTER: Novas licenças para os radioamadores no Reino Unido, com clausula sobre operações nos 5 MHz

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

New UK Ham Radio Licence

UK amateurs should have received a copy of the new amateur radio licence
document by the end of this week

The licence takes effect from April 7 and the RSGB suggests those who
haven't received it by April 14 should email ARL2015  ofcom.org.uk

On the 5 MHz Yahoo reflector *John G8XTJ* noted that the new licence
contained the following clause regarding 5 MHz operation:

*(x) The Licensee shall only operate the Station to the extent that the
Licensee can be contacted on a telephone which is located in close
proximity to the Station.*

The clause originally appeared in the special NoV which used to be needed
for 5 MHz operation and seems to have been simply copied across into the
main licence document. Since Ofcom has not yet requested amateurs to
provide their private telephone number it is not clear how they would be
able to ring the telephone which is in close proximity to the station.


A number of people have wondered if the wording in the licence permits
overseas contacts.

11(2)(a) says *Messages sent from the station shall only be addressed to
other Amateurs or to the stations of those Amateurs;*
While 17(d) says* “Amateur� means a holder of a United Kingdom Amateur
Radio Licence;*
