On 26th of May "OfCom" the UK's Radio Authority will issue a
consulation document on the future of Amateur Radio Licensing in the
UK. The consulation is open to all and will ask a number of questions
on options such as licence for life, de-regulation and:

"..options to make the (UK) amateur radio service WT Act
licence-exempt" [#1] - That's all amateur radio exempt from licensing
under the UK Wireless Telegraphy Act, it'll be a nightmare on the
bands, HF included.

Just so you do not miss this important event in world amateur radio,
add yourself to the mailing list he

I've just received a reminder to renew my licence by 30 June, should I
wait and see if I can save £15? How many pints is that?
