It is now much better! Many older callsigns were missing and so was mine! For my version, please visit here . For reference: Bermuda Class Three Licence - Advanced (that is not the same as the FCC Advanced Class, it's the same as EXTRA Class) Amateur Radio Service (HAM) Number: 3125 Callsign: Licensee: Paul Evans Valid from: Monday July 01, 2013 Valid to: Friday June 30, 2023 (originally issued in April 1979 & continuously held) See licence (address witheld) Visiting Bermuda Your licence will have <homecall>/VP9 on it. Please obey DXCC rule 7 or your contacts may not count: 7. Any Amateur Radio operation should take place only with the complete approval and understanding of appropriate administration officials. In countries where amateurs are licensed in the normal manner, credit may be claimed only for stations using regular government-assigned call signs or portable call signs , where reciprocal agreements exist or the host government has so authorized portable operation. Look carefully at the Schedule attached to your VP9 licence. You'll see that allocations may be different to your home licence. 5MHz is NOT included in the VP9 licence frequency schedule (only VP9GE has an experimental allowance) . I cannot work you there.
