Firm Date for Germany
So far, Switzerland, the UK and Belgium have axed the CW test.
The IARU modified s25.5 effective the 5th of July so that CW testing would be optional for administrations. Switzerland announced on the 6th of July that letters would be sent out to all class 2 hams giving provisional access to HF from receipt of the letter. By the 15th of July most Swiss hams had their letters. HB still has a Class 3 licence with only 2m/70cm, but no CW test is required for any licence. The UK abolished CW as a requirement effective the 26th of July. The licence structure is now Full, Intermediate and Foundation with different power levels. Foundation licencees cannot use 10m. CW tests are still available for a proficiency certificate for reciprocal operating. Belgium abolished the CW test on the 4th of August. Class 2s have to apply for a Class 1 licence to use HF, but it only takes three days to get one, and no CW test is required. I understand that ON has also now introduced a Foundation licence. Apparently, 'Funkamateur' magazine reported (incorrectly) that Germany would abolish CW testing on the 6th of August, but nothing happened. Now DARC (the German ham soceity) reports that from the 15th of August German hams with Class 2 licences will be able to use their existing calls on HF. The German text follows: RTA im BMWA Klasse 2: Jetzt geht es weiter! (11.08.03/js) Ab 15. August 2003 dürfen in Deutschland Inhaber der CEPT- Klasse-2 mit ihrem persönlichen Rufzeichen die Kurzwellenbänder unter Einhaltung der dafür gültigen Bedingungen benutzten. Dies teilten die Mitarbeiter des BMWA dem RTA-Vorsitzenden bei einer Besprechung mit. Das BMWA wird dazu noch in eine gesonderte Pressemitteilung veröffentlichen. Weitere Einzelheiten folgen. |

I understand that their national debt is so enormous that even scientific notation is having problems expressing it. Ask Airy to calculate their inflation rate in dB per annum. -- ;) 73 de Frank Turner-Smith G3VKI - mine's a pint. |

Made a lot of English friends. Whats your problem? All your mates at the pub throw you out on your ear for your stupidity? Dan/W4NTI Don't take old Airy to heart - he suffers from delusions of adequacy, and makes up for it by being as obnoxious as possible. In his own little world, nothing happened on September 11th 2001, apart from someone making a valid disagreement with American policy. At least when he's on his PC, where everything is handmade, he's not roaming the streets causing real damage. Point well taken.....I'll do my best to keep him occupied. Perhaps that will keep him off the streets.... Dan/W4NTI |

Just as you are painting some stupid-ass picture of "Americans" (US Citizens) because of the actions of a government; so is Morph painting with a broad paintbrush because of your PM. So, your incessant rambling is designed for nothing less than pure antagonism--or you are an idiot who really believes what you are printing. And, I'm done with you. You and Dick Carroll would fit in nicely with each other. He like broad paintbrushes also. Kim W5TIT |
