New E7A-E7Z Prefix for Bosnia and Herzegovina
The ITU has granted a request from the Ministry of Communications and Transport of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) to replace T9A-T9Z with E7A-E7Z. According to IARU Secretary David Sumner, K1ZZ, “While it probably will take some time for the BiH administration to implement this change, it should put to an end the use of call signs outside the ITU-allocated call sign block by stations in parts of BiH.” The new prefix will be implemented “probably later this year,” Sumner said.

Religious broadcasts reported on 10m
Reports have been received from Germany of religious broadcasts in the 10m band. The transmissions are thought to emanate from Ireland, which recently started licensing wireless PA services on the 11m band. However, German amateurs have received signals at 28.105MHz. The Irish Radio Transmitters Society is asking for any reception reports, with beam headings and recordings if possible, to try and help locate the transmitter or transmitters. Reports should be sent to Thos Caffrey, EI2JD, either QTHR or by email to thoscaffrey@hotmail.com. The Irish regulator, ComReg, is prepared to act on the matter if given sufficient information.
