VP0 NEW PREFIX (Antarctica, South Shetlands, South Orkneys) UPDATE
[Comments Wanted By November 10th]. Alan, VK6CQ (VK0LD, VP8PJ), from
Perth, provided the following information: Further to the recent announce-
ment of the new VP0 prefix for South Georgia and the South Sandwich
Islands, the government of British Antarctic Territory has now published
similar draft legislation that will affect amateur radio licences for
the British claimed sector of the Antarctic (which includes the South
Shetlands & South Orkneys). This can be viewed at:
  https://britishantarcticterritory.org.uk/consultation-amateur-radio-licensing/

  Members of the amateur radio community have until 10th November to
forward comments on the draft legislation to: polarregions at fcdo.gov.uk

  How new licences will be issued and how existing VP8 South Georgia &
Antarctic licences will be rolled over into new VP0 licences has not
yet been finalized.
