It appears that @thersgb is about to kill off what’s left of club training. No consultation. This doesn’t show a huge amount of respect for the volunteers who’ve been the backbone of bringing new amateurs into the fold for many years. Will the savings be passed on to students?
97% of #amateurradio licence examinations taken online at home via remote supervision/in a club. Following Syllabus v1.6 intro on 1 Sep, new exam question bank will only be online. From 29 Nov we'll stop taking routine bookings for paper exams. Full info: rsgb.org/main/blog/news…
Leaked resignation letter from member of RSGB exam team reveals that the group is “fundamentally flawed”, “self-indulgent and defensive” with trick questions “probably constituting fraud” on candidates who have paid to take exams.
Just 24 days after the AGM, and the society is already down one director. #Boardwatch
📣RSGB Board announcement: RSGB Board Chair Stewart Bryant, G3YSX has accepted the resignation of Paul Nichols, M0PVN as an RSGB Board Director. Paul runs a busy and growing legal practice which, like many professional roles, requires many long hours each day (1of2)
@gordonhudsonnu @theRSGB If they’re as worries as they should be, they might realise that sitting around strategising with post-its isn’t enough, and that some action is needed.
Watching @theRSGB AGM. Losses of £120,000 in 2023 and even more prices increases expected next year to cover the losses. Worrying?
@gordonhudsonnu @theRSGB Certainly, and we’ll know in 3 months whether the establishment gets to the newcomers, or the shift of balance brings about a desire for actual change. Historically, newcomers with opinions don’t last long and Sir Humphrey and Sir Arnold remain.
@gordonhudsonnu @theRSGB Today’s changes will be interesting, and the additions/returns have potential to shift the balance of power to allow focus towards a common goal. The first 3 months will be interesting. Desire for change, or the status quo?
@gordonhudsonnu @theRSGB The AGM didn’t convince me that there is a solid plan in place to resolve the problem - short of more price increases. There’s a tipping point after which members will walk. Today’s change in the “balance of power” will be interesting!

@AKAhamradio Two online sites debunk this - they cite the following directive:
@AKAhamradio Another screenshot from the announcement, in case you missed it
@AKAhamradio Have a look at yesterday’s announcement and the consultation. This is now allowed, so it follows that it wasn’t allowed previously. Pretty clear!
@AKAhamradio But Foundation did have that restriction on building TX kit. Check the consultation and today’s announcement - Ofcom has reversed this and transmitter building is now allowed.
@AKAhamradio You’re making the mistake of assuming “and may” (optional addition) means that same as “which can only”. If your interpretation was correct, this would say “may be used as a Data Station that can be operated by others”. You see the difference?
@AKAhamradio If I use a car and that car “may be used by others”, that still means I can use that car. “And may” is clearly an optional variant.
@_D_Drago @andy_rite @Ofcom @theRSGB So you don’t think that FT8 fits this definition, but APRS does? What about slow scan, RTTY or WSPR? Do you believe those involve sending or receiving data?
@_D_Drago @andy_rite @Ofcom @theRSGB Doesn’t matter what the guidance says. The wording of the licence is what we have to abide by. The wording about 5w is clear, and like it or not, FT8 is a valid data mode, as is packet and APRS.
@AKAhamradio I am going by the licence wording. An FT8 user can use their station for data (and allow access to others). But 17a caps this to 5 watts ERP. Here’s the exact wording:
@andy_rite @Ofcom @theRSGB Nope. Here’s the definition provided by Ofcom
