Austria ÖVSV: Amateur Radio only "toy"! ??

The Austrian national Society *ÖVSV* has responded robustly to a press
release put out on August 17, 2018 by the Austrian Ministry for Transport,
Innovation and Technology (BMVIT)

In July the BMVIT consulted on proposed changes to the regulations for the
Amateur Radio Services, such were the concerns raised by the proposed
changes that over 550 radio amateurs responded out of the total amateur
population of about 6,000.

It is understood the plan to force radio amateurs to renew their call sign
every 10 years or else lose the call sign was one area of particular
concern.

On August 17 BMVIT issued a press release seemingly lumping amateur radio
in with "Toys".

Quotes in Google English from the ÖVSV response:





*"The latest press release from BMVIT (Aug 17, 2018) unfortunately confirms
our worst fears! Although the statements of section chief Mag. Reichardt
were probably intended as reassurance to ward off the many inquiries from
the press and politics, the content is factually devastating and
wrong." "The amateur radio service is thrown into a pot of cheap radio
applications such as remote controls, toys, garage door openers, WiFi,
Bluetooth, sports equipment and wireless microphones and equated with CB
radio.""Even the described time limit of authorizations - after all for 10
years - is nonsense and certainly no administrative simplification. Without
justification, the license granted for an indefinite period of time will be
withdrawn here - a circumstance that is also concealed in the BMVIT press
release. The talks about regaining the permit were interrupted and not yet
continued." *
