Bangladesh Betar 3KW Transmitter

Plasing deur Anna_AG op 31 Maart 2009 in English.

A Couple of my colleagues were interested in the range of the Bangladesh Betar
3KW transmitter that re broadcasts BBC World Service material across Dhaka. I tagged along for the day as we drove under my guidance around Dhaka and outlying areas logging as we went.

We drove 36K line of sight north from the TX and reception was still pretty good.

The next day they drove to Mymensingh and Bogra - not yet mapped. A quick lesson to my colleagues on how to turn on my Garmin Legend and two sets of spare batteries later has given us two new trunk roads in Northern Bangladesh.

Thanks to Michel and David

Thanks for your nice work developing the maps of Bangladesh. For my workplace I have ordered 20 set Garmin Worldmap CD, which proves pretty useless, showing only mejor highways and cities. Then I found OSM. Now whenever possible I also try to update the maps.

Hope to meet u someday :)
