Default CB LICENSE MAY BE DROPED NEXT YEAR

Ofcom are conducting trails with chruches using CB and when these are
completed then maybe the lincense will br droped sometime in 2006 say Ofcom.
What the trails have got to do with the license being droped I can't think
but there you go the facts from the horses mouth !

I have been saying this for some time, it is in the CADS document they released
August 2004. It must be remembered that "maybe" is the appropriate word. They
do NOT commit themselves either way.

They use the words:
"it is hoped that it will be possible to deregulate"
It is always possible, the real question is whether they will decide to.

It is planned that people wanting to listen to CADS broadcasts will use CB radios.
I am sure that Ofcom will not be keen to tell these people that a license is not
required for reception, just that a CB requires a licence. It is also possible that
CADS listeners could also see the use of it to chat to each other... requiring a
CB license.

If the number of licences gets a boost, do you think that Ofcom will be as keen to
drop the requirement and lose that income?
