on august 8, 2007 the international telecommunications union (itu) replaced the callsign series prefix block of bosnia and herzegovina (bih) from
t9 to e7. effective today at 2300z (march 22 1200 am in bosnia and
herzegovina) amateur radio operators from bih will begin using their new e7 callsigns. t93y (soon to be e73tw), boris knezovia, says the communications regulatory agency issued only two and three letter callsigns suffixes.
applications for one letter suffixes can be applied for starting april 14th and hopefully being issued in late may 2008. more details (in bosnian) can be found at
http://www.cra.ba/bs/public-affairs/pressr/default.aspx?cid=4822. this should generate a lot of interest on the bands late tonight and early tomorrow. see you in the pileups!
