Call signs for foreign amateurs operating in US
"Jack VK2CJC" wrote in
message It was a little different for me because I am a dual citizen (Australia and the US). When I inquired they said I couldn't use my Australian license in the US, even though I hadn't set foot in the US in decades, because I maintained US citizenship, so I had to take US tests and have a US callsign when visiting. That's cos Australia and the US don't have a reciprocal agreement. I'm dual citizen of Australia and the UK, and I can use my VK call in the UK for up to 3 months if visiting. Not that I'd want to cos I still got my UK license I am surprised that the US don't issue temporary visitors licenses though. Aus and UK do that. They used to, I had to get them when I used to visit the US before they implemented CEPT T/R 61-01. The FCC called them "Alien Permits" which always made me feel I should have been landing in a flying saucer rather than a 747..! 73 Ivor G6URP |
