Funny statement, looks like the Mexican governement needs some new
lawyers. :-)
You get a license in which you can operate according to the Mexican
license rules with exception of:
- participation in Dx contests.
So you are allowed to make a 2000 qso's in a contest but not allowed
to send in a log? And participation in domestic contests and NA only is
allowed? Or is it that any contest which does not have the word DX in
its name is allowed?
- special contests. There is nothing special with contesting so this is
a useless addition.
- special expeditions. For me travelling to XE to operate hamradio would
be a special expedition. This permit would be useless.
My wife will like the permit, no radio at all during a holiday. Looks
like Mexico is going to be in our list of allowed holiday locations.
