Its validity lasts until December 31st 2008. The technical parameters and the operational conditions are the same as for the year-2007 experimental cycle. The I0JX/B beacon operating from Rome on 70,088 MHz has been re-activated. DL3YEE also back on 4 m until August By G6GVI Published: 1 April 2008 Print EmailKlaus, DL3YEE, also got permission to be QRV on 70 MHz again. This time from 1 May and until end of August 2008.

Conditions: 69,950 MHz, max bandwidth 2,7 kHz and max 10 W EIRP. During Hans’s first permission, expired 2008-02-29, he was very active and made over 100 QSOs. So with a new permission in hand and the Es season coming soon tons of QSOs can be expected. Hans is very thankful to the German Bundes-Netz-Agentur.Czech Republic now QRV on 70 MHz By Bo, OZ2M Published: 27 February 2008 Print EmailRadio amateurs in the Czech Republic are now permitted to transmit on 70 MHz.

Licensed stations are:OK1CDJ * OK1CO * OK1COM * OK1CZ OK1DFC OK1DO * OK1ES OK1KT * OK1MAC OK1MP * OK1VEC OK1VHF * OK1VM * OK1XFJ OK2BDS OK2BGW OK2POI * OK6IM OK6TW * OK7FA * *: Station known to be QRV. Czech Republik on 4m By CT1HZE Published: 11 February 2008 Print EmailThe Czech PTT has announced that very soon 20 special 4m permits will be granted. QRG range 70.2- 70.3 MHz, 10 W ERP, all modes. The licences will be valid untill Dec 31st 2008. Depending on the experiences in 2008 there are good chances for a general release in 2009. ITALY ON 70 MHz DURING 2008 By Tony, I0JX Published: 20 December 2007 Print EmailThe current permit expires on December 31st 2007. In year 2008, before resuming 4meter operations, the Italian amateurs shall wait for a new authorization to be released. Discussing the issue with our counterparts, we understood that a simple extension of the current deadline would not be possible. Estonian readyness By Arvo, ES1CW Published: 19 December 2007 Print EmailAt this time we have a "wild white field" around 70 MHz, only some 10-12 (mods needed) pieces of FT-847 in use in whole country. But at the same time our activity on the Six are OK - in example, I had wkd over 100 different ES-stations (with IC-706xx, IC-7400, IC-746, IC-756, FT-100, FT-817, FT-857, FT-847,FT-897, FT-920, TS-2000 etc now) on the Six during this year. And perhaps, many 6m 10...15 W transverters are still OK for a 4 m conversion items... And a vy new "everybody one" must be constructed in the "Estonian fashion", lot of work on the horizon... Merry Xmas and HNY 2008 73! de Arvo, ES1CW ERAU Technical coordinator 70 MHz allocation in Estonia By Mart, ES2NJ Published: 19 December 2007 Print EmailTo VHF-community of Europe We are very happy to announce that from December 23, 2007 the 70 MHz (4 m) band is officially allocated for regular amateur radio use in Estonia on secondary status. The band may be operated by all national licence classes (A, B and D). A foreign radio amateur, who is the holder of a valid CEPT licence, can also use his amateur radio station on 70 MHz during a temporary stay (up to 3 months) in Estonia without any extra registration, application or charge – like it is the case with other amateur bands in the country. The secondary status of the band however means that it can be operated on non-interference basis to other communication services in Estonia. The transmitter’s RF power output limit is set to 20 dBW (100 W) for the national classes A & B and to 10 dBW (10 W) for the class D (entry level). All modes (CW, SSB, AM, FM, MGM) are permitted. In general, using a horizontally polarized antenna is recommended. The band plan of the new allocation shows, that the lower limit for operation is at 70.140 MHz – perhaps there is a hope that it can be shifted down in the future, but currently we have to be pleased also with this permission. There may have been some preliminary notices of the new band allocation from Estonia also before, but at that stage they were more rumours and did not carry actual official data. Herewith we are glad to say that all official paperwork has now been finished, corresponding permission has been issued by the Ministry of Economy and Communication and after almost 5 years of hard work ES should be soon heard on the 4 m band! With Season’s GreetingsMart, ES2NJ ERAU VHF Manager Report of FIRST 4m expedition to JN51XX By IK0IXI Published: 17 December 2007 Print EmailHi guys!
