Not at all. It's a new introductory license. The concept was pioneered
in the UK a few years ago and recently introduced in Australia.
Licensees do a weekend course followed by a written exam and practical
assessment. In return they get access to 80/40/15/10m SSB with 10W
limit plus 2m/70cm FM, commercial gear only (no homebrew).
It's been very popular.
Foundation licenses all have calls of the form VKnFxxx.
