 NOTE: Since Morse code is no longer required and the CEPT regulations have
 changed, the former class 2 licenses are now allowed to operate on HF as
 well. As far as I know this affects the following prefixes: DG, DB, DD, DC, Tnx DG3OW

        DA Germany
        DA0  Clubstations
        DA1... DA9 = individual licenses issued to members of foreign Nato forces stationed in DL.
        Both,  VHF licenses and full privilege licenses
        DB Germany VHF licenses
        DB0  Repeaters, beacons, club stations with VHF license
        DB1... DB9 = VHF licenses
        DC  full privileges (since 2007, before just VHF)
        DD  full privileges (since 2007, before just VHF)
        DE  examined SWLs
        DF  full privileges
        DF0  Club Stations
        DF1.. DF9 = individual licenses
        DG  VHF licenses
        DH  Since May 1st 1998 this prefix belongs to the full privilege class. Old licenses have
         been upgraded.
        DI - In 2005 and 2006, two experimental licenses with the DI prefix were issued for beacons operating on 440 kHz on medium waves -- 2005: DI2AG is licensed to, and operated by DJ2LF. 2006: DI2BO is licensed to, and operated by DK8KW
        DJ full privileges
        DJ0  Legal alien residents
        DJ1... DJ9  German citizens
        DK   full privileges
        DK0 Club Stations
       
DK1... DK9 = Individuals
        DL  full privileges
        DL0 = Club Stations
       
DL1...DL9 = Individuals
        DM both license classes. DM series will only be used in the boundaries of former
        East Germany,  which used the DM  prefix before East Germany went to the
        Y2..Y9 series. DM calls will only be assigned  to radio amateurs, who actually held
        a DM call in the past. DM: Since 1.1.1999 new   DM-calls will be issued to VHF-licensees
        (also to those who did not hold a license before)
        DN Training Calls, will only be used for formal training of unlicensed prospective hams.
        Used only by the Trainee NOT by the Trainer, who has his own call
        DO  low power 2m/70 cm only calls, plus 5 Meters and 80 Meters since early 2007
        DP  expeditionary calls, used only for stations operating outside of Germany in
         international territories or in space. Also Antarctica
        Thanks To Siegfried Rambaum--
KB2YVC & Bert DL3YEI

A short comment to your prefix list, entry for Germany: there have been a few DI calls issued, one for a /mm expedition (DI9AA) in 1954, a second for another one (DI2DR)in 1965, and another (DI2BC) for one-way transmissions from a research institute; see http://www.qsl.at/deutsch/gr_di9aa.html (only available in German at the moment); and there was one DQ callsign for a special station DQ0KBM in 2000, celebrating 100 years of regular wireless service in Germany. From DL2LFH, Jan-Martin

GERMANY NEWS (New Prefixes on the air!). Germany has started to assign DQ and DR-prefixes. Club stations can now apply for 2x1-callsigns like DK2A. All numbers 0-9 mean "club station", there are no 2x1 callsigns for individuals. One more important change: While all DP-prefixes were extraterritorial area before (like DP0GVN, DP0POL in the Antarctica, DP0EPO Munich European Patent Office), now _only_ DP0-DP2 are extraterritorial. 2x1-Callsigns DP3A-DP9Z are "regular short callsigns" for Club stations.

European Russia Prefixes and Zones
Asiatic Russia Prefixes and Zones

The Russian Federation consists of 92 'oblasts', which are territorial divisions. Each 'oblast' has two-letter designator, which is equivalent to former USSR three-figure 'oblast' designator. A further unique feature of the Russian call sign allocation system is the ability to determine which oblast the call sign is located in.

This is accomplished by the number and the letter following the number. For example, in the call sign RA9AE, the '9A' designates a station from the Chelyabinskaya oblast; in the call sign RW3FO, the '3F' designates a station from Moskovskaya oblast; in the call sigh RK3AWL, the '3A' designates a station from Moscow City (considered a separate oblast); and so forth.

The most common call signs are the six alphanumeric call signs 2x3 (such as RA3APW);these call signs are used by class IV, III, II operators, roughly equivalent (in order) to US Technician, Technician Plus, and General or Advanced class licensees. 1st class operators may use 2x3 call sign too. Five alphanumeric call signs (2x2, as in RA3XO) are used by the class I (the highest level attainable) individual license class, equivalent to US Extra class licensees. Club stations use six alphanumeric character call signs with the second letter W-Z (2x3, such as RW6AWT or RK9CWW).

‘Ordinary’ special calls begin with prefix UE (such as the recent special Red Banner Pacific Fleet special event station call sign UE56MM, broadcast from a former Soviet (Navy submarine). Using UE’s in contests is strictly forbidden.

Also special calls may have the following alphanumeric designators: 1x2 ("R" + figure + two letters), 1x3 (such as R1FJL, a special DXpedition call sign designating the location as Franz Josef Land) or 2x1 (such as RW2F, a special contest call of RK2FWA club station from Kaliningradskaya oblast).

VY0 Nunavut  -- New Territory as of April, 1999, composed of land that had formed the eastern part of the Northwest Territories (VE8). Most of Nunavut is in CQ Zone 2, as are all but three of Nunavut's 20-odd Amateurs. The westernmost part of Nunavut lies in Zone 1. Akimiski Island and other islands in James Bay are part of Nunavut, but are in Zone 4. Note that all the islands in Hudson, James and Ungava Bays are part of Nunavut, no matter how close they are to the shorelines of Manitoba, Ontario or Quebec. ITU Zones are 2, 3, 4 and 75.

W United States (ITU Zone 6,7,8 CQ Zone 3,4, 5)

The first one or two letters identify the country the station is licensed in.
The prefix letters used for stations in the United States are...
A (AA-AL), e.g., AC6V
K (KA-KZ), e.g., K6DX, KC6UQH
N (NA-NZ), e.g., N6KI
W (WA-WZ), e.g., W6AM

The number indicates  the U.S. district of license. The U.S. is broken down into 10 regions (0-9).  See Below.
(NOTE: US Amateurs may keep their calls when moving to another district--so a W1 may in fact reside in California (W6)

The suffix (last one, two, or three letters) are unique.

Callsigns may reflect the license class, although many keep a lesser callsign when upgrading. 
A 2-by-3 [two letters, a number, and three letters] callsign typically belongs to a Novice or Technician
operator, e.g., KC6UQH. Also some of the newer General operators have a 2-by-3 call.

A 1-by-3 callsign usually belongs to older Technician and General class operators. e.g., N6AEK. These callsigns were 'used up' in the sequential callsign system, so newer Tech and General operators are now receiving 2-by-3 calls.

A 2-by-2 call usually belongs to an Advanced or a newer Extra class operator. An Extra 2-by-2 usually starts with an 'A'. e.g., AC6HZ. An Advanced 2-by-2 usually starts with a 'K', 'N', or 'W'. e.g., KB5MU

A 1-by-2 or 2-by-1 call usually belongs to an older Extra class operator. e.g., N6ST, AC6V. When these sequential callsigns were 'used up', the Extra class operators started receiving 2-by-2 calls starting with the AA block.

A 1-by-1 callsign is very special. It is assigned to a special event station for a short period of time. They
are not assigned to individual operators as their regular callsign. e.g., W0W See URL: 1X1 Calls
