[edit] Improvement

Hi, I am going to start improving this page for several reasons (mainly because there is a lack of good information on this subject on the web, because it is such an amateur topic the websites that contained good information seem to dissapear over time). The current plan is to seperate it out into the following sections:

  1. the role of the RSBG
    1. and affiliate organisations such as RAYNET which have their own pages
    2. its relationship to the government, military and OfCom
  1. Licensing information (classifications etc)
    1. bandwidths allowed + reasons and information
  2. Informational services provided by the RSGB
  1. The history of the RSGB (such as the changes in licensing)
    1. Possibly starting a stub page for the UK code prefixes including information such as what a G8 is and what a G6 is
    2. reasons for the changes (such as the decline of home-built ham-gear replaced with high quality gear from Japan etc providing better service & less interferance)

and also possibly

  1. information about complaints (such as interfereance or missuse of communcations)
  2. Starting to document all the information about individual events and developments
  3. starting stub pages to contain information about suppliers and groups in the uk
  4. starting stub pages containing information on the techincal meanings (including license discussion such as the difference between ERP and power into antenna)
  5. providing links for learners and resources that can be used.

This will take me a couple of weeks... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mchicago (talkcontribs) .

- I am sure that if you contact the RSGB you will receive help. Suggest asking the guys at RadCom. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.2.202.178 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Importance Tag

The tag needs to go. This article does assert the RSGB's Importance. The article may need to be expanded, however it no longer needs the tag for importance. Anonym1ty 17:20, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
