Ofcom license review - YOUR INPUT NEEDED!!

Post by g8gtz » Mon Oct 13, 2014 7:31 pm

It is not well known but Ofcom intends to review and update the terms and conditions of the UK amateur radio licence.

The current form of the licence has been around for several years and Ofcom is keen to ensure that it continues to meet its regulatory needs.

More information about the Licence Review, together with a commentary from the RSGB, and a link to the Ofcom response form can be found here: http://rsgb.org/main/operating/licensin ... ce-review/

RSGB has also provided guidance here to the Ofcom Consultation document which many found difficult to read and interpret.

THIS IS A NUMBERS GAME - Ofcom will only react in our favour if they see a large number of responses and have already said a response from the RSGB only counts as one input. It is most important that there is a good response to the consultation which closes on 20th October. Time is of the essence so get your response in now!

Please take time to read and respond, this WILL affect YOU and YOUR amateur license! The consultation closes on 20th October.

I responded by telling them I expect the RSGB to represent my best interests and I left the rest of it blank.
