Hi
All
I just got a PM from Albert
PA0A.
It seems that members of the PA HAM
club VRZA did receive a renewed license for 500 KHz, so they are allowed to TX
on 500 again.
The VERON (of which I am a member, a
membership I am re-evaluating!!!!) does not have a new license. Reasons until
now officially unknown because of non-response of VERON officials, but it seems
that they did not apply for a new license.
Regards,
Minto

Hi
Mal,
It seems
that I am not the only one that has been kept in the dark.
There is
still no official word that 500 is open to us again, but the scuttlebutt is that
the powers that be did approve our use of 500 KHz from 1.1. 2011 to 01.04.2011
in a timely manner. However our representatives (HAM clubs VERON and VRZA) have
been asleep at the job. (e-mails have been send to wrong addresses etc or
whatever)
So
officially we cannot TX on 500 as the VERON and VRZA must hand out the licenses.
Which
they have not done yet - as far as I know.
Oh well,
there seems to be some civil disobedience by fellow PA hams. If there is enough activity
the coming days I think I will join them.
Regards, and see you on 500 KHz soon.

I am curious how and when they got a renewed
license.
I have heard nothing from my VERON "600m controller", and
nobody I know has either.
Maybe Jan pa3abk knows more via the VRZA? (I heard from the
potentially good news through his earlier message here on the
reflector).
Regards,
Minto pa3bca.
