19.03.2013

Between 6 April and 30 May 2013, the National Authority for Management and Regulation in Communications (ANCOM), by means of its regional divisions of Bucharest, Cluj, Iasi and Timis, is organising the ordinary examination session for the persons who wish to achieve the certificates of radioamateur and, respectively, of radio operator in the land mobile service.

The examinations for the radioamateur certificates will be held on 6 April 2013 in Cluj, on 13 April 2013 in Iasi, on 16 April 2013 in Timisoara and on 16 and 17 April 2013 in Bucharest. Further details regarding the examinations organised for the radioamateur certificates, as well as other information on the rules, list of topics, international regulations, sanctions and forms are available here, on the ANCOM website.

The examination sessions for the certificates of radio operator in the land mobile service will be taken as follows: 9 – 10 April 2013 in Bucharest, 20 April 2013 in Iasi, 14 – 15 May 2013 in Timisoara and 30 May 2013 in Cluj. Further details are available here, on the ANCOM webpage dedicated to the operating personnel of the radiocommunication stations.

The interested persons can register for the two types of examinations by submitting a registration application, along with a copy of the applicant’s ID card/birth certificate or passport and a passport-type colour photo. In addition, the applicants for the certificate of radio operator in the land mobile service need to provide the proof of middle school graduation (5^th-8^th grades).

The specific users of land mobile radiocommunication networks – who need a radio operator’s certificate in order to operate radiocommunication stations – are both small entrepreneurs and large companies that require their own radio communications for their economic operations. These companies operate in domains such as: industry, production, utility transport and distribution at a national level, transport, constructions and public works, agriculture, forestry, security and protection of privacy, public protection, public health, community management services etc. At present, there are 18,571 valid operator’s certificates for the radiocommunication stations in the land mobile service in Romania.

Radio amateurism is mainly a hobby, with yet a profound competitive side at a local and an international level. Radio amateurism also allows for: developing abilities in using the radiocommunication stations, regardless of the user’s age; knowing in-depth the phenomenon of radio propagation in various frequency bands; making and testing radiocommunication equipment, as well as participating, together with the relevant public institutions, to ensuring radiocommunications under emergency situations. In Romania there are currently 9,443 radioamateurs authorised by ANCOM.
