LAYOUT OF VOLUMES I, II AND III (Recommendations, Reports, Resolutions, Questions and Study Programmes of the C.C.I.R.) General The Recommendations, Reports, Resolutions, Questions and Study Programmes of the C.C.I.R., the texts of which appear in Volumes I, II and III, are those which have been approved by the IXth Plenary Assembly of the C.C.I.R., together with those which, approved by the Vth, Vlth, Vllth and VUIth Plenary Assemblies, have been retained. The Recommendations, Reports and Resolutions of a general nature are arranged in numerical order. The Questions and Study Programmes are grouped together and arranged in the numerical order of the Study Groups. For each Study Group the Questions are laid out in numerical order, each being followed by the Resolution(s) and Study Programme(s) to which they are related. Study Programmes which are not the result of a Question are indicated by a note. Questions submitted to the C.C.I.T.T. form the subject of a separate chapter. References to the texts, if any, forming the basis of Recommendations, Reports, Resolutions, Questions and Study Programmes are given below the title. On the right under this reference is shown the Plenary Assembly or Assemblies which have approved or subsequently modified the text. Mention is made in a footnote, when the occasion arises, of the texts or text which have been replaced by the text in question; in the case of a Question, the Study Programmes are shown which arise from it; and in the case of Study Programmes, mention has been made where necessary of the Questions to which they refer. To facilitate reference to a desired document, and to reduce the bulk of the bound edition, the previous Volume I has been divided into three: Volume I : Recommendations of the C.C.I.R. Volume II : Resolutions, Questions and Study Programmes of the C.C.I.R. Volume III: Reports of the C.C.I.R. Further to facilitate the tracing of a desired document, the Recommendations and Reports of the C.C.I.R., while retaining their serial numbering, have been grouped into ten sections desig­ nated by capital letters: A. Transmission F. Radio-relay systems B. Reception G. Propagation C. Fixed services H. Standard-frequencies and time signals D. Mobile services and space-systems J. International monitoring E. Sound broadcasting and television K. Vocabulary Definitions of the Recommendations, Reports, Resolutions, Questions and Study Programmes of the C.C.I.R. * The following definitions of Recommendations, Resolutions and Questions are those which appear in Doc. No. 272 of Geneva (Drafting Committee). The definition given for Study Program­ mes is that which appears in Doc. No. 630 of London (Drafting Committee). The definition given for Reports is that which appears in Doc. No. 731 of London (U.S.A.) modified by the addi­ tion of the words “ by a Study Group — 7 — Recommendation Statement issued when the study of a Question, or part of a Question, has been concluded. Report Statement for information, on the studies carried out by a Study Group on a given subject. Resolution Statement of an opinion of the C.C.I.R. on a non-technical subject. Question Statement of a technical problem which the C.C.I.R. is to consider. Study Programme Text describing the work to be done on a given technical problem forming the subject of a Question.

  • Z-Signals Are Completely Different from the Old Cable & Wireless Codes
    Z Codes – Military and Commercial Z - CODES - Military & Commercial Z-Codes are mainly used over commercial and military teleprinter, facsimile and high speed automatic telegraphy links and are not normally used by Radio Amateurs, even when using RTTY, but the list is included for general interest. The list and usage data was compiled by Ralf D.Kloth, DL4TA, and is reproduced here with his kind permission. I am grateful to Ralf for this, as he spent a considerable amount of time and effort researching various sources in order to produce his list. The Z-Code was originally developed as a service code by Cable & Wireless Ltd. for usage in the commercial communications business. NATO military Z-signals are completely different from the old Cable & Wireless codes. The NATO military Z-signals, ZAA...ZXZ, are defined in ACP 131, but the series ZYA...ZZZ is reserved for the temporary or permanent assignment of meanings on an intra-military basis by any nation, service or command. In the following table, a non-annotated code denotes the original Cable & Wireless usage, * indicates NATO military usage (ACP- 131(E), 1997) and ** indicates Russian military usage. As the majority of Z-Codes are not normally used as questions, their meanings are given with the answer, advice or information form shown first, with the question form shown in a second column, if appropriate. Z signals shall be read as questions when followed by the interrogation signal (IMI) in civil use or preceded by the prosign (INT) in NATO military use. Note that the numbers 1...5 following a Z signal have the following meanings:- (1) very slight (2) slight (3) moderate (4) severe (5) extreme Code Advice Information or Answer Question ZAA* You are not observing proper circuit discipline.

  • Digital Symbols
    SUBJECT: SYMBOLS FOR DIGITAL MODES USAF MARS: ROGER B. HUGHES / AFA9HR / AFF9TD Quick Guide to Documentation on Symbols for Digital Modes Objective The idea of this quick overview is to explain what the symbols used in digital modes such as K and AR come from and how they are used. 1. Overview of the symbols used in CW and radiotelegraphy. 2. Overview of the symbols used in radio teletype (RATT) and other more modern modes such as MT63 and MFSK. 3. Reference to the Allied Communications Procedures publications that contain the relevant information for use within USAF MARS. Topics for Reference 1. Frequently on amateur circuits that use digital modes, such as PSK31, different techniques have been used to have a protocol that works under specific circumstances, e.g. KK is frequently used in amateur circuits to indicate “over” as the double character is most likely to be well interpreted when working on marginal links under marginal power. In military circuits, this is unacceptable, the correct signal is a single K meaning “over”. 2. In summary, we have the following: • K — “over” — all transmissions end in either K or AR, never both • AR — “out” — never use AR and K together on MARS circuits • AS — “wait” — short time wait, say up to 15 seconds • AS AR — “wait out” — wait longer than 15 seconds 3. All the operating symbols are listed in the ACP set of publications which may be found on http://jcs.dtic.mil/j6/cceb/acps/ 4. ACP 125(F) is for radio telephone and all MARS operators should become familiar with it.

  • Q – Signals March, 2011
    The Technical Minute CVARC Q – Signals March, 2011 N6PK – OOTC – 50 years of Amateur Radio Introduction • Q codes are a standardized collection of three- letter encodings, initially developed for commercial telegraph communication, and then adopted by other radio services • Example, an operator will complain about QRM (man-made interference), or tell another operator that there is "QSB on the signal"; "to QSY" is to change the operating frequency N6PK – OOTC – 50 years of Amateur Radio History • The original Q codes were created in England in 1909, for British ships and coast stations • The Q codes facilitated communication between radio operators speaking different languages and adopted internationally • A total of forty-five Q codes was included in the Service Regulations affixed to the Third International Radiotelegraph Convention in London (July 1, 1913) N6PK – OOTC – 50 years of Amateur Radio History • The Q codes were adopted by amateur radio operators • In December, 1915, the ARRL began publication of QST, named after the Q code for "General call to all stations” • In amateur radio, the Q codes were originally used in Morse code and were followed by a Morse code question mark (··--··) if the phrase was a question N6PK – OOTC – 50 years of Amateur Radio Code Ranges • QAA–QNZ code range includes phrases applicable primarily to the aeronautical service • QOA–QQZ code range is reserved for the maritime service • QRA–QUZ code range includes phrases applicable to all services and is allocated to the ITU • QVA–QZZ are not allocated N6PK
