WORLDBEAT: RSGB WANS HAMS ABOUT UNAUTHORIZED USE OF OLYMPIC
LOGOS
The Radio Society of Great Britain is warning that although
telecommunications regulator Ofcom has granted permission
for that nations radio amateurs to use special prefixes over
this summer, this permission does not extend to use of the
various logos associated with the London Olympic games on
QSL cards or elsewhere.
The RSGB notes that these logos, or Games Marks as they are
called in the UK, are strictly controlled by the London
Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
As such they are not free for individuals and organizations
to use without express permission..
There is so far only one exception. Project ECHO which is
concerned with the two main special event stations has been
granted permission to use the games Inspire logo, but only
in a limited way.
More information about the use of the Olympic logos and
their use can be found in the at the Frequently Asked
Questions on the www.london2012.com website. (RSGB)
