More time and power for 500kHz enthusiasts (in Great Britain)

There is good news this week for those experimenting on the MF band 501 to 504kHz.

Following representations made by the RSGB, OfCom have extended the validity of all Notices of Variation by one year to 28 February 2009.

At the same time the maximum permitted power has also been increased to 1W ERP from 100mW ERP.

The full statement from Ofcom, including details of how to apply for a Notice of Variation, can be found on the Ofcom web site. [GB2RS]
