Hi,I am from Mumbai, Malad and I want to strat a local community FM radio.can someone give me info on the hardware, license, till what distance can i transmit ....any websites were i can get more info on the same..Thanks in advance🙂
 
umm i dont even think its legal in india...
 
You need to:1. Spend one year in learning readio tech [To learn which power levels, freq, locations are ok which ones are not]2. Clear one exam (Next one is in Sept I guess)3. Have your equippment certifiedCommunity Radio (a.k.a Ham) was the only service that was working in Mumbai floods on 26th July when GSM/CDMA broke down.
 
community radio is different from Ham radio

in India, at present, community radio licenses can be given to
educational institutions and social service organizations only .
individual persons cannot get a license to operate it - sad ...
 
Yes it is different in terms of usage and well as technology.But you need to to write the same exam for both.
 
Thanks guys for ur info. Seshu thanks 4 the link ..this will be of g8 help
