The following bulletin was sent out today by the Radio Amateurs of
Canada HQ:



Industry Canada has analyzed the responses to the public consultation
called under Canada Gazette Notice DGRB-003-04. A summary of the
comments received and the individual replies are now available on the
Industry Canada web site at

http://strategis.ic.gc.ca/epic/inter.../sf08280e.html.

Amateurs should note that while the responses heavily favoured
deletion of the Morse Qualification as a requirement for access to the
HF bands, Industry Canada still has to make and announce a decision on
Morse retention or deletion. Until a decision to delete Morse is
announced, amateurs who do not hold the Morse Qualification may not
operate on the HF bands below 30 MHz.



It's almost over up here now - decision time is just around the
corner!

73, Leo
