ARLA/CLUSTER: Alteração nas licença da categoria 3 (UK Foundation licence) devido ao brexit no Reino Unido

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

 UK Foundation licence changes

BREXIT isn’t the only news from the UK. There have been some
interesting changes announced to the UK Foundation Licence examination
syllabus, which will come into effect September, 2019.

The major change, from my initial review, is the introduction of
digital signals in Section 2F. This includes audio sampling using CD
“Red book” examples, how digital signals are processed, what are DACs
and ADCs. Section 3M then covers SDRs.

There are some other additions such as introducing polar plots for
antennas. The safety section has also been expanded to cover earth
leakage RCBOs.

These UK changes will set clear precedents for similar changes to be
made to the Australian Foundation Licence syllabus, and for the follow
on LCD changes to allow digital mode operation for new F calls and
existing F calls that have demonstrated knowledge of digital
principles. Watch this space over the next year or so …
