3D2/C, CONWAY REEF (Update). Jan, DJ8NK, informs OPDX this past week
that “all is working to schedule, paperwork is done, flights are booked,
boat (a catamaran) is chartered and hardware is in store.” During the

antenna running 100 watts. QSL via W2LPL.
A3, TONGA. Paul, A35RK, informs OPDX that changes are (and will be) taking
place in Tonga. He informs that he has recently made a visit to Nuku’alofa,
the capital city, and during his stay there, Paul had a very productive
meeting with the Radio Licensing Officer and the Technical Officer in
the newly formed Department of Communications. In the past amateur radio
issues have been managed by a variety of different government agencies:
Tonga Telecom, Marine and Ports, the Post Office, the Treasury, and most
recently the Prime Minister’s Office. Pauls states, “All that has changed,
and we now have a ‘one-stop-shop’ for amateur radio licensing and regulation.
Virtually all radio-related legislation is currently under review, and a
number of changes will be coming soon. A brief summary of our discussion,
and the outcomes, follows:
INFORMATION AVAILABILITY - The Department of Communications is building
a website. They intend to make license application forms available online.
LICENSING PROCEDURES - Licensing procedures for visiting operators and
yachts in transit will be simplified, especially for those entering the
country somewhere other than Nuku’alofa (ie Vava’u). They may also make
it possible to actually apply for a license online. However, they still
want to ’see’ an applicant before actually issuing a license.
ENTRY LEVEL LICENSE CLASS - A ‘Novice’ type of entry level license may be
created, in order to encourage more activity. The formation of a club
station and licensing classes (possibly thru the Tonga Maritime Training
Institute) was discussed.
CALLSIGN ALLOCATION -
1) A35x (single letter suffix) callsigns may soon be issued to resident
‘Advanced Class’ licensees, and possibly to special event and
contest operations.
2) A35xx (2 letter suffix) callsigns may be issued to entry level
licensees.
3) A35xxx (3 letter suffix) callsigns may be issued to short-term
visitors and transitting yachts.
4) The existing callsign registry will be ‘purged’ of all inactive
callsigns, thus allowing for more new issues. An effort will
be made to publish a list of ‘current’ licensees annually.
POWER LIMITS - Permitted output power will increase from the present 100
watts to 400 watts. This will bring Tonga up to the same level that is
authorized in New Zealand and Australia.
ADDITIONAL 40 METER ALLOCATION - The current 40M allocation is 7.0-7.1
MHz. In addition, 7.1-7.2 MHz operation will be permitted on a secondary
basis.
60 METER ALLOCATION - This was discussed, but no allocation will be
considered until further studies and consultations are made, possibly
next year.
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS - Tonga now has a government Emergency Response
Plan, and amateur radio participation is authorized in conjunction with
the Tonga Defense Force, the Tonga Meteorological Service, the Ministry
of Civil Aviation, and the Tonga Red Cross.
MONITORING and ENFORCEMENT - The government intends to more carefully
monitor amateur and maritime communications in an effort to reduce
‘boot-legging’ and to insure compliance with regulations.
I’ll keep you advised as things develop. Discussions continue, and I
must say that the new Department of Communications is very open and
cooperative. If anyone needs further information, they may contact:
Fe’ao Vakata (That’s pronounced “Fay AH oh Va ka TAH”), Radio Licensing
Officer ”
A3, TONGA. Ramon, XE1KK, is planning to be active from Tonga in October
