Dear Graham, Pat, LF Group,Having in the past done a few presentations on LF at RSGB conventions, I found that LF was definitely a sideshow compared to HF DXing matters, but none the less, there was a worthwhile and quite enthusiastic attendance. Having an LF station at the convention also gave non - HF DXers something to do! Amongst various old amateur radio publications, I have a copy of the January 1946 RSGB Bulletin - predecessor to RadCom. At this time, UK licences were just beginning to be re-issued after the war years, and apparently this was when the change from "radio experimenter's licence" to "radio amateur's licence" was made. The editorial is generally favourable about this official change in status, bringing UK amateurs into alignment with other nations. Apparently, before 1939, any UK amateur transmission was supposed to have some sort of justification as an experiment, and UK stations had to call "TEST" instead of "CQ". The editorial acknowledges that even in these early days, a substantial proportion of amateurs were only really interested in DXing, rather than any radio experimentation. So this argument has been going on for some time... Cheers, Jim Moritz73 de M0BMU |
