(I wonder if this affects a few international broadcasters who were
"slightly" out of the official band... Mike)

Croatia has become the first country in Region 1 to benefit from the
expansion of the 40-metre band agreed at the World Radio Conference in
Switzerland last summer. 9A amateurs have also been given privileges at 70
and 3400MHz and now no longer have to pass a Morse code test for access to
the HF bands.

New amateur radio regulations came into effect in Croatia on the 26th of
December. Since then, amateurs there may operate between 7100 and 7200kHz on
a Secondary basis, with a maximum power of 1000 watts PEP, in addition to
the normal Region 1 allocation of 7000 to 7100kHz. On 4 metres, Croatian
amateurs now have 70.000 to 70.450MHz, with a power limit of 10 watts. They
also gain a new band between 3400 and 3410MHz, with a maximum permitted
power of 150 watts. The Morse code requirement for an HF bands licence was
also dropped with the new regulations and there are now only two licence
classes the the full licence and a beginners' licence.
