50 MHz now available in Sweden

Swedish Radio Amateurs now have access to the 50-52 MHz band with a power output limit of 200 watts and will get access to 7.1-7.2 MHz with 1 kW output from 1st April.

Previously access to 50 MHz had been by special permit only.

Although the power limit is currently 200 watts output the Swedish National Society website says that work is ongoing between the SSA and the PTS in order to get this changed to 1 kW output.
