More 60m permissions - Slovenia and Niger
Slovenia
Tine, S50A, reports that the Slovenian telecoms regulator, AKOS, has given permission for use of the 60m band in Slovenia.
First of all a temporary three-month licence (Jan. 11 – Apr.11 2017) is being issued to all Slovenian amateurs who apply for it. The allocation is the WRC-15 one from 5351.5 to 5366.5 kHz with 15W EIRP.
It is hoped that in three months the administration will adopt the regulation fully which will be valid for all. Use of the IARU Region 1 60m bandplan is recommended.
