   International Third-Party Traffic -- Proceed With Caution   
      
   Occasionally, DX stations may ask you to pass a third-party message   
   to a friend or relative in the States. This is all right as long as   
   the US has signed an official third-party traffic agreement with   
   that particular country, or the third party is a licensed amateur.   
   The traffic must be noncommercial and of a personal, unimportant   
   nature. During an emergency, the US State Department will often   
   work out a special temporary agreement with the country involved.   
   But in normal times, never handle traffic without first making   
   sure it is legally permitted.   
      
   For a list of countries that have third party traffic agreements   
   with the United States, go to:

   International Operating   
      
   Overview   
      
   Amateurs sometimes visit other countries and naturally want to operate   
   their amateur stations. The three types of reciprocal operating   
   authority are 1) a CEPT license; 2) an IARP; and 3) a reciprocal permit   
   from a country which does not participate in either of these two   
   multilateral agreements. Always follow all of the communications rules   
   of the country visited. To operate under CEPT or IARP, the amateur must   
   be a licensee in the country of citizenship.   
      
   Canada is the exception to the above. The US and Canada share an   
   automatic reciprocal operating agreement. US amateurs must carry proof   
   of their US citizenship and their valid US license. Identification for   
   US amateurs is the US call separated by a stroke and the appropriate   
   Canadian prefix identifier (e.g. N1KB/VE3). In all other instances, or   
   as specified by the national licensing body, the prefix goes before the   
   call sign. For further information on US/Canadian operation, visit the   
   RAC Web site.
