IMPORTANT NOTES
|
Due to OFCOM Policy it is not currently possible to grant NoVs to Foundation Licences
Applications sent with invalid EMail addresses will be DISCARDED
>
Do NOT put non-numeric data into fields where the labels are BLUE
This application form may be used for UP TO six ports. Please ONLY
apply for the number of ports you actually require, and a maximum of one
possible frequency per sub-band, in any case. For our purposes, the sub-bands are:
29 MHz, 50 MHz, 70 MHz, 145 MHz, 430 MHz, 434 MHz and 1297 MHz
If your application has been submitted successfully you will receive a copy of it to
the EMail address you supplied within a short space of time
Please note that operation of this type of gateway must attended and at the main station address as on your licence validation document.

WHY WE NEED THIS INFORMATION
|
It is our collective responsibility to ensure that our use of the radio spectrum is as efficient
as possible. Towards this objective, frequency coordination is employed as a tool to ensure maximum
frequency re-use and minimum mutual interference. With this in mind, this form asks for the minimum
information necessary in order to carry out frequency coordination of the application.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT
|
You will be sent an EMail (to the address you have supplied above) confirming the
details of the application you submitted, and this should arrive within a few minutes.
If it does not arrive within a reasonable space of time, please report this to
dcc.online@dcc.rsgb.org
.
Once your application has been received work will begin in respect of frequency
co-ordinating your request alongside the existing Gateway stations and other
applications which preceed yours.
Assuming frequency co-ordination is possible, your application will be sent to
OFCOM who will issue your NoV.
THAT YOU MUST NOT OPERATE AN INTERNET VOICE GATEWAY STATION UNLESS YOU ARE IN
POSSESSION OF A VALID NoV WHICH AUTHORISES YOU TO DO SO

NOTES
|
-
This form is not suitable for those wishing to
provide Internet Gateway facilities via an established voice repeater.
Please consult the Repeater Keeper for further information
-
This form will allow you to select up to six frequencies ("ports") for your
NoV. If you need more than six frequencies you will require an additional NoV (and
there will be an additional administration charge)
-
Failure to supply any of the requested
information will delay processing of your application. It may be helpful
if you supply a contact telephone number, which might speed resolution
of any queries
- All heights are in metres not feet
- Applications must be for your Main Station
Address, as shown on your licence documents
- Applications for Club Callsign Stations cannot
be currently be accepted. Checks are carried out to verify the holder of
the callsign.
-
"ERP" (Effective Radiated Power) is the product
of transmitter power in dBW and the antenna gain in dBd. For example
assuming a maximum of 10 dBW ERP: if your antenna has 3 dB gain the
maximum transmitter power will be 7 dBW (5 Watts)
-
Please be considerate and ask only for the
minimum ERP necessary to achieve your objectives for this gateway
station. It may be necessary - for frequency coordination purposes - for
you to accept a lower than requested ERP.
-
It may not be possible to assign your requested
frequency because your proposed use might cause harmful interference to
users of already established gateways. Where possible, you will be
offered an alternative frequency to use.
-
If you do not know your IARU Locator, please calculate it using the following method:-
- Check your NGR by putting your postcode into the search on
Multimap
Enter the NGR that Multimap shows you by clicking on our
NGR to Locator Convertor (credit is due to G4ANB for the conversion algorithms used)
If you need to contact someone about a previously submitted application (to withdraw, make changes,
etc) please send an EMail to: dcc.online@dcc.rsgb.org
|
By submitting this application you agree that you understand that under current rules, Internet Gateways may
ONLY be operated from the address shown on the Notice of Variation (which is the address for your Main Station
as printed on your Validation Document) AND that the Gateway may only operate when you are PERSONALLY
on those premises.
Further, you agree and acknowledge that any and all information supplied to the Radio
Society of Great Britain or its officers in connection with this application will be sent to the regulator
(Ofcom) and kept in their files.
