Re: m3s

This text was taken from the AMATEUR RADIO (FOUNDATION) LICENCE
QUESTION AND ANSWER SHEET - July 2002

Q8. Could a home designed and built transmitter be used by a foundation licensee
if it is ‘signed off’ by an existing licensee?

A. No. The use of Home built transmitters (i.e. equipment constructed by the amateur
without using commercially produced kits) will not be allowed under the Foundation
licence. The reason for this is that to properly construct home build equipment, a
greater technical knowledge is required than the Foundation course would provide, and
there is a risk that the equipment may cause interference to other radio users.

Still confused contact the RA sorry Ofcom
