BITS & PIECES -
Etherkit debuts with open source QRSS transmitter kit -
Etherkit, a new amateur radio kit company devoted to open source hardware,
has released its first product for sale.
OpenBeacon is an open source crystal-controlled QRPp beacon transmitter kit
which can output a variety of slow-speed modes, including QRSS, DFCW, and
Sequential Multi-tone Hellschreiber
It is configured via USB port, so there are no jumpers to set and you can
easily adjust all of the operating parameters via command line.
Once configuration is complete, OpenBeacon may be removed from the PC and
operate stand-alone, as the on-board microcontroller stores all settings.

German amateurs get 472-479kHz band -
German amateurs with a Class A licence are now allowed to operate in the new
472-479kHz band. The power limit is 1W erp, with a maximum signal bandwidth of
800Hz. [Southgate ARC]
------------------------------
Ofcom announces that a small block of 2m is required for the London 2012 Summer
Olympic Games -
In the July RadCom it was announced that Ofcom had approached the RSGB to
discuss temporary usage of a few channels on 2m to support the London 2012
Summer Olympic Games. Following negotiations with the RSGB to minimise the
impact on amateurs, Ofcom has now announced that it will temporarily authorise a
small block of 12.5kHz channels on that band. The frequencies are from
144.0125MHz to 144.1375MHz, but only for the period 27 July to 28 August 2012.
The frequencies specifically exclude the CW calling frequency, 144.050MHz, and
the Meteor Scatter calling frequency, 144.100MHz. Ofcom are also aware of the
various contests on 4 and 7 August and will work with Game users to keep
operations to a minimum on these dates. Usage of this spectrum by Games users
will be in the vicinity of London Olympic venues, and will be limited to
handhelds with a maximum output of 5 watts. Ofcom emphasises that use of Primary
Amateur spectrum is only for the specified time period and does not constitute a
change of usage. The full Ofcom statement can be found at:
www.rsgb.org/olympics. [Southgate ARC]
