Enabling Objective:
A pass mark in the Amateur Radio Foundation
Licence syllabus
Background Information
The Amateur Radio licensing scheme has undergone a thorough
revision in recent years. The system is now in three parts;
Foundation, Intermediate and Advanced. Those who obtained
licences prior to this have had their qualifications transferred
across to the new scheme and the resulting mix of standards and
call-signs will take some time to completely settle down.
For the purposes of this scheme, it is sufficient to achieve the
standard for the award of a Foundation licence but, obviously,
higher awards will be accepted as including this.
In simple terms, anyone who holds a valid Amateur Radio licence
and call-sign issued by the UK authorities will satisfy the
requirements.
