The regulation to the law over the amateur radio or briefly amateur radio regulation (AFuV 2005) is a regulation of the German Federal Republic and is the details to the amateur radio law to regulate. The first amateur radio regulation stepped at the same time with the amateur radio law to 23. March 1949 into force, thus still before the Basic Law. The amateur radio regulation was amended on 15 February 2005 for today's version. The so far only change, dated on 7 July 2005, is renaming the RegTP into the BNetzA.

The second law for the reorganization of the power industry law of the 7.Juli 2005 changed the amateur radio regulation from 23 December 1997, which does not apply since 19 February 2005 any longer, thereby inadvertently in place of the valid version.

History of the amateur radio regulation

The first amateur radio regulation was adopted 1949 as regulation for the execution of the law over the amateur radio (DVO). There were at this time 2 license classes, the class A with a reduced entrance to the high-frequency bands, for it however an easier amateur radio examination (slower Morsezeichen in the telegraphy examination). Besides there was the class B for all the amateur radio assigned of volumes. The competence for the amateur radio was at the military government, and/or at the Federal Ministry of Post and Telecommunications and the Federal Post Office as responsible authority.

1961 permitted for the first time the Federal Post Office the mode of operation to Funkfernschreiben.

A large change experienced the DVO to 13. March 1967, when the C-licenses were introduced, with which for the first time without the examination of the telegraphy one did. There were now thus the classes A, B and C. simultaneous became e.g. the amateur radio television certified, only 1971 then also satellite communication service traffic as amateur radio service over satellites.

By the post office reforms the supervision changed over the amateur radio of the Federal Post Office first to the Federal Post Office Telekom, then to the German Telekom AG equipped with sovereign powers. After the separation in supervisory authority and business enterprise the Federal Office became responsible for post office and telecommunications.

In the context of amending the amateur radio law in the year 1997 also a new amateur radio regulation was adopted. The amateur radio certifications were introduced, thus had one for the first time a separation of the inspection certificate (now also internationally harmonized after CEPT) and the dispatching of the call signal, which permitted the use in the frequency use plan the amateur radio assigned of the frequencies. At the same time the old license classes A and B were combined into the new class 1. The class C was created to the new class 2 and with the class 3 a new license class, in which only fundamental knowledge in the amateur radio examination is examined and with which one only with small achievement on some UKW to send was allowed. The classes 1 and 2 differed by the existed telegraphy examination for the class 1.Im same period the complete telecommunications right were only liberalisiert, therefore the frequency use plan came into force only after some delay. Starting from 1 January 1998 the Federal Office for post office and telecommunications in adjustment authority for telecommunications and post office was renamed and at the same time the Federal Ministry of Post and Telecommunications was dissolved, and/or attached the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs.

On 15 August 2003 the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs published a after which licensees of the class 2 were allowed to use all frequency ranges of the amateur radio service the available temporarily. Basis of this explanation was the WRC (World radio Conference) 2003, on which it was decided that the amateur radio administrations themselves were allowed to decide, whether a telegraphy examination for the short wave entrance is demanded or not. Thus for one and a half years of offences against the amateur radio regulation were tolerated. This temporary agreement applied by 18 February 2005; on 19 February the today valid regulation came into force.

On 19 February the last novella of the amateur radio regulation came into force. The amateur radio classes 1 and 2 became the new class A and the class 3 became the class E renamed. Many detail regulations were put now into the hand of the RegTP, e.g. and/or approved test contents, which became distribution of the call signal prefixes on the amateur radio certification classes etc. as substantial change for the radio amateurs now not more certain modes of operation permitted, but only the range of the sending limits.

The second law for the reorganization of the power industry law from 7 July 2005 changed the amateur radio regulation from 23 December 1997, which did not apply since 19 February 2005 any longer. Same misfortune happened during the frequency range assignment plan regulation, which version from the year 2001 became in July 2005 changed, although there was a new frequency range assignment plan regulation since at the end of 2004, which the regulation of the same name from the year 2001 repealed set.

Area of application

The amateur radio regulation applies due to the amateur radio law.

Definitions

In the sense of the regulation is

1. "“technical examination for radio amateurs"” an examination for the acquisition of an amateur radio certification;
2. "“Amateur radio certification or inspection certificate"” the confirmation in or foreign test authority over a successfully taken technical examination for radio amateurs after certain examination requirements (certification class);
3. "“Club station"” an amateur radio place, which is operated by members of a group of radio amateurs using a jointly used call signal;
4. "“or automatically working amateur radio place"” operated by remote control a vacantly operated amateur radio place, operated by remote control or automatically sending produced (relay radio stations, Digipeater, radio-beacons etc.);
5. "“Relay radio station"” an amateur radio place operated by remote control (also in satellites), which sends received amateur radio sending, parts of it or other fed or stored signals far released and for the increase of the accessibility of amateur radio places serves;
6. "“Radio-beacon"” an automatically working amateur radio transmitting plant (also in satellites), which produces automatically sending for the field strength observation or for receipt attempts;
7. "“Maximum performance (PEP)"” the achievement, which the transmitter under normal operating conditions can deliver during one period of the high frequency oscillation with the highest point of the modulation envelope on the average to a real terminal resistance;
8. "“effective radiating power (ERP)"” the product of the achievement, which are supplied to the antenna directly, and its profit in a direction, related to the half wave dipole;
9. "“equivalent isotropic radiating power (EIRP)"” the product of the achievement, which are supplied to the antenna directly, and its profit in a direction, related to the isotropic ball emitter;
10. "“range"” occupied the frequency band width, with which below its lower and middle achievements sent above their upper Frequenzgrenzen 0.5% of the entire middle achievement of sending amount to in each case;
11. "“unwanted sending"” each sending outside of the necessary range; this is the range, which for a given classes of emission straight is sufficient, in order to guarantee the transmission of the message with the speed and quality, which are necessary under the given conditions.
