Algeria (7T-7Y)
Algeria has not entered into a reciprocal or a third party traffic agreement with the United States. Amateur radio is encouraged there in their own way, but it is very difficult, if not impossible, for an alien amateur to be licensed even if he or she is not a short-term visitor.

Antarctica (KC4 only)
Radio operations are managed by the National Science Foundation for the United States Antarctic Program (USAP) via the services of is prime support contractor who provides IT & communications support functions in Antarctica under contract to the NSF (currently Lockheed Martin ASC, Centennial, CO). NSF oversight of call sign allocations is confined to the FCC delegated KC4 call sign blocks (KC4AAA-KC4AAF) and for any radio communications conducted at a US Antarctic Program operating location - NSF maintains internal USAP radio frequency spectrum coordination.

In practice, NSF sponsors three "club" station operations, one at each of the three USAP stations of McMurdo, South Pole, and Palmer. These operate under an FCC delegated KC4 call sign. Manning of the stations may be episodic, contingent upon the presence of a US licensed amateur radio operator.

Any other amateur radio operation by an individual not using the officially sponsored station would be requested to operate as a conventional mobile or portable, and the NSF's primary interest would be the advanced coordination and registration for radio frequency coordination when operations could be conducted at/near USAP operating locations.

Any other amateur radio operations affiliated/sponsored by other national Antarctic programs would be addressed to the country of relevance. Any independent, non-affiliated amateur radio operations would not be addressed to NSF unless the operations would occur near or at USAP operating locations, in which case NSF requests radio frequency spectrum coordination.

General inquires can be addressed to:
National Science Foundation
Geosciences Directorate, Division of Polar Programs
Antarctic Infrastructure and Logistics Section
4201 Wilson Blvd, Room 755
Arlington, VA 22230

Technical inquiries regarding spectrum coordination, sponsored station facilities, etc. can be addressed to the current NSF Antarctic Support Contractor:

ARMENIA (EK)
An Armenian Amateur Radio license (permit), is issued by the Republican Center of Telecommunication, CJSC, Ministry of Transport and Communications of the Republic of Armenia. According to the Regulation of the above mentioned organization, which is approved in the Decision of the Government of RA of 20 November, 1999, No.694, appendix 9, the foreign Amateur must submit to the Republican Center of Telecommunication, CJSC, the following documents:

• Application questionnaire
• Copy of the amateur license issued by the country of which the amateur is a citizen
• Recommendation of the FRRA (we can send this letter after you send us the first two papers)

All these documents must be submitted not later than two months before beginning of activities of the radio amateur. However, FRRA can gain the extension of the deadline. A foreign amateur who would like to obtain a two-month license must pay 150,000 Armenian Drams, and for the period of time up to one year, 500,000 Armenian Drams. One USD is equal to about 588 Armenian Drams.

To bring equipment into the country (for example, a transceiver), you must obtain permission from the Republican Center of Telecommunication, CJSC, and pay about 18,000 Armenian Drams for the permission.

Ascension (ZD8) / St Helena (ZD7)
St. Helena: It appears you apply for a license at the Land Planning & Buildings Control Division. You will need to produce a copy of one’s home license and pay a fee. There is a power limit of 100 watts. If one applies in person, the license can be issued in about 2 hours, and the operator may choose any available call sign.

Ascension: The same form is used as on St. Helena. The operator applies to the Office of the Island Administrator with the form and a copy of one’s local license. The license is issued on the spot for the fee. The operator has the choice of whatever callsigns are available. There is an Amateur Radio club on Ascension with a fully equipped radio shack that may be used by visiting amateurs. Getting permission to land and/or stay on Ascension is very difficult.
