    โ€œBrazil's telecommunications regulator, ANATEL, has two big changes planned for the nation's hams. The Brazilian regulator will no longer require Morse code for amateur licenses under the changes that have been under consideration since 2020. The regulator will update content in its exams for its three license classes. This is one of several changes contained in a resolution released on April 28th by ANATEL. The resolution also grants hams the ability to operate on citizens' band 11 meter frequencies.โ€
