 band <br>
<br>
The maximum radiated power 1W EIRP, apparently Sweden is too close to Russia to permit 5 watts EIRP

<br>
The Telecom Paper reports that also on October 1 new rules concerning exemptions from the requirement for radio transmitters to have an operating license came into effect.
<br>
<br>
Most transmitters need a license but for the sake of simplicity, PTS allows exceptions in cases where this is little risk of interference.
