5 MHz - Hungary issues temporary permits for 5350 to 5450 kHz

The Hungarian telecoms regulator, NMHH (The National Media &
Infocommunications Authority – Hungary) following representations from
the Hungarian national amateur radio society, MRASZ, has been issuing
temporary permits for operation in the band 5350 – 5450 kHz on a
Secondary basis for propagation research.

The permits are valid for three months and can be re-applied for at
the conclusion of the period. All modes are permitted with a maximum
power of 100W (measured at the transceiver output terminal) currently
in a nominal maximum bandwidth of 3 kHz.

Hungarian amateurs apply via MRASZ for the permit, who collate the
details then forward them to NMHH who issue the permit. Activity days
are being organised and there is a CW beacon on 5357 kHz, at present
using the callsign HA7SO, but this will change in due course to
HG7BHB.

Hungarian amateurs are aware that although their permits allow them to
use a band of frequencies, some countries have channelized allocations
on 5 MHz and they will be respecting these also. Currently some 20 –
30 permits have been issued.

It is hoped that the situation may become more permanent later in the year.
