DX Pedition from Bangladesh ...Misguided Information !!!!
Recently some Foreign Radio Amateurs make an announcement that they will operate a DX Pedition from “Kuakata“ Bangladesh on March 15 -27, 2017with the Call Sign “S21GM “ & “ S21KW” .
But from last few years BTRC issued only three letter "SUFFIX" for foreign Radio Amateurs such as " S21ZBA " to identify that it's a temporary call sign and operators not Bangladeshi.Two & One alphabet "suffix" will be reserved only for Bangladeshi Radio Amateurs. After this DX Pedition announcement Some Bangladeshi radio amateurs contact with BTRC and BTRC informed that so far they didn’t issue any license for the proposed DX Pedition Team . After this the DX-pedition team has removed the callsign from their website Amateur Radio DX-pedition to Bangladesh, March 15-27, 2017
We welcome to DX Pedition it's a big part of Radio Propagation Experiment with Contest ,but should be followed by the rules of regulation of the Country. Some local Radio Amateurs don't know the actual rules and regulations of DX Pedition so Foreign Radio Amateurs become misguided.
Please contact www.btrc.gov.bd to know the 7 days Temporary License for Bangladesh.
