It stated on the Ofcom website that UK radio hams could apply for special licences celebrating both the London Olympic games and the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, we were told we could apply for these licenses commencing March 1, 2012. If you've already been on the website you will have seen that there isn't any information available yet on how we apply for these special call. I contacted Ofcom this morning and they have told me that there was a mistake on the website and in fact we cannot apply for the licences just at the moment. Ofcom could not give me any more information regarding the special calls, and they couldn't give me a date for when we can start applying for them.
Well, it seems that somebody somewhere has got something wrong. Even though OFCOM told me that I couldn't apply for these special calls to day, it now appears that the RSGB have already put up a page on the website where you can fill in the appropriate information to obtain the special calls.
