The Irish Republic 500 permit is also an experimental licence and not a
radio amateur licence. One licence that I hold EI2AE when first issued was
an experimental licence back in 1956 and not a radio amateur radio licence
like the UK. The conditions were very strick compared to the UK which was
also vy strict at the time. One wrong move and the licence was gone maybe a
fine for having no bicycle rear light. A radio amateur should know better.
In Singapore 1968 my call was 9V1OY and to get this licence I had to take an
Oath before a Magistrate, have the equipment inspected and produce my UK
licence as well to prove that I was qualified.
How things have changed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amateur licensing here has been handled by volunteer examiners for
some time now not the FCC.
The biggest difference is that there is nothing comparable to your NoV
process for 500kHz etc, here a separate experimental license is
required from the FCC.
There is a big upside though to the experimental license though, while
U.K. stations have 3kHz bandwidth and 10W ERP, my 500kHz experimental
license allows me the use of 42kHz and 1kW ERP, and that was based on
what I requested, I could have had even more bandwidth and more power
and I believe that it would have been granted had I requested it.
