Weiteres Rufzeichen für das Betreiben einer Amateurfunkstelle als Klubstation Zuteilung

If you are authorized to participate in the amateur radio service, you can, under certain conditions, be assigned an additional callsign for the operation of an amateur radio station as a club station.

A club station is an amateur radio station that is operated by a group of radio amateurs using a shared call sign.

If you are licensed to participate in the amateur radio service in Germany, you can apply to the Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) for the allocation of a call sign for a club station. You must have been appointed by the management of your group as the person responsible for the club station.

The frequency ranges and maximum transmission power permitted for radio operation depend on the amateur radio certificate class entered in your allocation certificate. There are the amateur radio certificate classes

• E and
• A.

When you are allocated a callsign, the following personal data will be published in the callsign list and callsign query on the BNetzA website:

• Your name and
• Your amateur radio certificate class in connection with the amateur radio call sign assigned to you.

If you do not object, your address and the location of your amateur radio station will also be published. You can object to this publication by

• stating this in your application or
• objecting to this in writing at a later date.

In deviation from the regulations for the other callsign allocations of the amateur radio service, callsigns with a 4 to 7-digit suffix or 1-digit suffix can also be allocated for club stations. Such callsigns are allocated to you for a limited period:

• the maximum allocation period for club station callsigns with a 1-digit suffix is 5 years,
• 1 year for club station callsigns with a 4 to 7-digit suffix.

Temporary call sign allocations can generally be extended. Applications must be submitted in good time before the end of the allocation period. However, callsign allocations with a 4 to 7-digit suffix cannot be extended.

You can specify callsign requests in the application. However, there is no legal entitlement to specific callsigns.

• Application
• informal proof of the existence of an association of radio amateurs. If the association is known to the BNetzA, no proof is required.

• You have a residence in Germany.
• You are authorized to participate in the amateur radio service in Germany and therefore have a personal callsign.
• The management of your group of radio amateurs has appointed you as the person responsible for the club station.

For the allocation of a club station callsign with a 4- to 7-digit suffix:
