Yuki,
Your article on no-code in Japan was very interesting. What are the requirements
and privileges of the other three classes?
In Great Britain there are 2 classes of licence, known as class A and class B.
Class B only requires a written exam and gives all privileges above 144MHz
(and maybe on 70 MHz too, I forget). Class A requires the same written test
and also a 12wpm code test (sending as well as receiving), and gives full
privileges on all bands.
Can anyone else out there give information on the situation in other countries.
