Colin et al,

Agree with sentiment that /A is redundant. Why did "a number of 
members" see it as necessary when they could have 2 locations already 
- and do the RSGB consider those members were representative?

I also have a query on the use of /P for Unattended (remote) operation.

1) If I operate an Unattended Station (say) 20 miles away, I have to 
sign /P  -- why isn't that /A?

2) If I operate my home station in Unattended mode (i.e. by internet 
link from my office) then why do I have to sign /P? My Radio 
Equipment is at the station location and the emitted RF is where it always is!

Anyway, my question now is how do I (we) go about feeding these 
points (very politely & positively, mind) into OFCOM?  Is the RSGB 
coordinating or should it be via the OFCOM website (bit difficult as 
this is not a Consultation document). Any assistance would be helpful.

Overall, welcome additions - any moves with a higher power contest NoV?
