CEPT in Russia 13th April 2011

[OH5LID]

Privet, today saw following messatge our logal mailng list

From Eugene UAØCA, "I wish to inform all of pleasant news - Russia has joined CEPT. Now foreign hams who have a radio amateur license and come to Russia will be able to operate without notice, using their call sign with a slash adding the call area of Russia. For example, RAØ/JA8BMK."

Hello, Jano!

It is not correct. Russia is for a long time already a CEPT member. In March 2011 Russia declared that it has completely joined CEPT recommendation T/R 61-01. The local prefix for call sign is not declared yet. In any case it will not be a call area of Russia. Most likely it will be RA/ for owners of full CEPT licence and HAREC and RС/ for owners of CEPT NOVICE licence and ARNEC. It is necessary to wait the official document. It will appear very soon.

Пример не очень удачный. Конкретно с JA есть сложности другого характера. Получаю с 1994г регулярно каждые 5лет R3/ и могу сказать что никакой СЕРТ не отменить "Закон о связи" и тем более обязательной регистрации радиостанции, но для русских хам будет гораздо проще работать заграницу.
