Update on the release of 70 MHz in Norway

The Norwegian Post and Telecommunications Authorities have now started the formal hearing of their proposal for a new Amateur Radio Regulation. The proposal includes the use of the 4 meter band on a secondary basis, covering in total 200 kHz spread over 5 frequency blocks.

The closing date for the hearing is set for the middle of September. This would still leave hope for the new regulation to become effective before the end of this year.

Since May 1st, 2009 Slovak (OM) stations have an access to 70 MHz band:

- Segment 70,250 – 70,350 MHz
- Max. 10 W ERP
- Extra class only
- Each station must apply for a special permission for 70 MHz

I hope there will be a good activity from Slovakia on 4 m.

IARU R1 Countries with 4 m
By EI3IO

I've just been browsing the IARU R1 web-site and its pages which cover 4 m. IARU's list of 4 m countries is, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, Faroe Islands, Gibraltar, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Monaco, Montenegro, Portugal, Serbia, Slovenia, Somalia, South Africa, Sweden and United Kingdom.

I was interested to see Montenegro and Serbia listed. I already have Serbia confirmed but would be interested if anyone knows whether any stations are QRV from Montenegro as well as their licensing conditions.

Obviously they are also missing a few e.g. ES and OK to name but 2.

Mid Cornwall Beacons

Having just read that Ted, G3YJX has 'retired' as beacon keeper, may I offer thanks for all his efforts over the years on behalf of myself and I'm sure many others. The beacons on 4m (and the other bands) have been been really useful and I hope this can continue.
