UK: EASIER TO PROCESS REPEATER LICENSES
---------------------------------------
U-K telecommunicatiopns regulator Ofcom has announced that it intends to end the 
National Frequency Assignment Panel for frequency coordination and the Working 
Group on Radio Site Clearance processes. From an Amateur Service aspect this 
should mean that the processing for repeater and similar applications in Amateur 
primary bands should be reduced by some weeks. However, Ofcom will continue to 
carry out coordination on bands such as 70 cm and 23 cm in which the Amateur
Service is a secondary user. (GB2RS)
