In March of 2024, a rover scout skill course on amateur radio was organised by a rover scout group in Dhaka. S21AM and S21D were the instructors of the course, they, along with S21RAK, gave a basic idea about amateur radio. Again, in October 2024, that same rover scout group had set up a JOTAJOTI station where a broader idea of amateur radio was given to rover scouts. Because of these events, the interest on amateur radio began to increase among the young rover scouts. Seeing the interest, S21AM & S21RAK decided to help the rover scouts advance with amateur radio.
To prepare the next generation of amateur radio operators, 13th Hussars Open Rover Scout Group has organised an amateur radio course for their rover scouts which will be conducted by Foundation for Amateur International Radio Service, FAIRS. The orientation of the course took place on Saturday, 23rd November 2024 at Willes Little Flower School, Dhaka and the sessions began on 26th December 2024. The orientation was led and conducted by S21AM and was arranged by S21RAK. The course has been designed in accordance with Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission, BTRC's amateur radio syllabus and Rover Scout program. Our goal is to not only prepare the course participants for the exam, but also to strengthen their base so that they don’t get lost in the universe of amateur radio. This course has been divided into 10 different topics and the sessions will be hybrid. The theoretical sessions will be conducted online and practical sessions will be conducted in person. Experts from relative fields will conduct sessions on different topics. The participants will learn Basic Electronics, Wave Theory, Rules and Regulations of Radio communication and many more. This course will provide the much needed guidance for radio enthusiasts. 25 Rover Scouts have signed up for the course. They’ve embarked on a journey to acquire knowledge, a journey to be one and only.
We have a dream, and our goal is to fulfill that dream. Keep us in your prayers. Inn Sha Allah, success awaits.
