Once you have acquired a set, and made sure that it is
type approved, you will want to use
it. Before you can do this, you need to register the set with the
P.M.R. Officer
(See Appendix C). He will record the
details of the set, and allocate a callsign for it. The callsign
will be unique to that set, and will be the reference for that set
while ever you have it registered. The callsign will be in the format
REVCOMxxx where
REVCOM is fixed and
'xxx' will be a 3 digit number. The first digit
of the callsign represents the region in which the radio lives.
The last 2 digits simply make the callsign unique.
 | See the section
Obtaining A Set in Chapter 2 for
a fuller description of how to go about registering a new set.
|
The main reason for registering a set is that the R.A. can at
any point contact
the P.M.R. Officer, and request information about any set that
is currently on license. If this information is not made available
to them, we could be considered in breach of the license and have
it revoked.
