Hi Marcel
It's always good to talk. Great to hear from you after such a long time. Ho
pe to meet up at some point. For me 8:33 De Kooy (always have difficulty wit
h my writing and speaking Dutch language, apologies.) makes it awkward. Thou
gh we in the UK have had some great news. A confirmation that in the UK wil
l now gain a subsidy from the EU of 20% of the cost of a new 8.33 radio. Per
sonally I will fill in a form and buy one as soon as the final version of t
he application form is released. Presume you also have ( as a fellow EU citi
zen) the same opportunity in The Netherlands?
Bulletin :"=82=AC4.3m of grants from the EU, the CAA confirmed today.The C
AA applied to the EU for =82=AC4.3m funding to encourage the timely trans
ition of the UK GA fleet from existing 25 kHz radios to 8.33kHz equipment. T
hat application was for the maximum permitted grant of 20 per cent of the es
timated total cost of 8.33kHz equipage."
