Several FCC Part 97 Amateur Radio rule revisions to implement changes agreed
to at the international level during World Radiocommunication Conference
2003 (WRC-03) went into effect May 3 upon their publication in The Federal
Register. The FCC Order
in January, affects §97.111, Authorized transmissions; §97.113, Prohibited
transmissions; §97.115, Third party communications, and §97.117,
International communications. The FCC has yet to deal with the so-called
"Morse code proceeding," WT Docket 05-235, which also stemmed from decisions
made at WRC-03. The Commission has proposed deleting the Element 1 5 WPM
code test as a requirement to obtain any Amateur Radio license.
