This, when the International Telecommunications Union holds its 1995 World Radiocommunications Conference a week from now. The revelation that New Zealand has decided to take the point position in working toward worldwide codefree licensing comes in a letter to the New Zealand Association of Radio Transmitters from Mauriece Williamson.
