Bill,

Yes. The CEPT license will allow any OH with a license class L, P, T, Y to 
operate in any CEPT country including FJ. There is no mention of the C class OH 
license. 

It's certainly one for the DXCC Desk to sort out.

  Wouldn't it be what type of license FJ allowed, not OH ???

    It's clear that OH2AM is a club call and therefore Class C.

          call name address zip city class @sral.fi email 
          OH0B OH0R OH2R OH0AM OH2AM OH-DX-Ring Ry PL 73 02381 ESPOO   C 

    http://oh-callbook.sral.fi/?call=oh2am&name=&addr=&zip=&city=&class=&lang=EN

    It's clear that the CEPT regulations does not include class C in their OH 
allowed CEPT users.

      I wondered about that myself.  As you said, "Fascinating!"

      I was under the impression that as a CEPT country, anyone from another 
      CEPT country could just go there and operate.  I could just go and 
operate 
      as FJ/W9SZ.  The main contention seems to be now about the callsign used 
      after the "FJ/".

      So where are they?  Why aren't they doing a similar operation when they 
      know how much in demand the entity still is?
