radio amateurs face fee increases

*VERON* reports the Dutch regulator Agentschap Telecom (AT) is imposing
higher annual charges on radio amateurs and higher exam fees. Repeaters
have been hit with much higher fees due to illegal users

A translation of the VERON post reads:

The Government Gazette of October 28, 2020 published, among other things,
the new rates that apply to radio amateurs in 2021.

We pay these rates for the activities and services of Agentschap Telecom
(AT). All rates for 2021 will increase compared to 2020.

An additional rate of € 79 has been introduced for repeater stations. This
became necessary to cover the costs of investigations and surveillance due
to the increased illegal use of the stations.

The Government Gazette lists two rates for registration. Namely an amount
of € 59 (was € 57 for 2020) and an amount of € 44 (was € 42 for 2020).

The first amount applies to a “not fully independent digital notification
and registration, in the year that the activities [of AT] take place.�

The second amount applies to "fully independent digital reporting and
registration and registrations in the second and subsequent years."

The rates for Novice or Full exams will also be increased, from € 68 in
2020 to € 71 in 2021.

There are two tariffs for the frequency use of a repeater station or beacon
per license and / or planned unit. The fee rate for the performance is €
201 (was € 184 for 2020), while € 79 (was € 0 for 2020) is charged for
supervision. The Government Gazette gives an explicit explanation of the
second rate: *"It has become apparent that relay stations have suffered a
lot from illegal users in recent years. To tackle these disruptions,
specific criminal investigations and supervision are necessary. In order to
be able to carry this out, a supervisory rate (column II) has been
included."*

Other registration costs:
• Temporary permit in the Netherlands for non-residents: € 41 (was € 37).
• Other non-exempt use of amateur bands: € 74 (was € 68).
• Issue of a certificate to obtain a license from a foreign administration
for radio equipment for conducting tests: € 76 (was € 73).
