I will be traveling to Mexico some time in the next month or so, the
question is: Do I need special permission to take my FT-817 into the
country (and operate of course.)

When I went to Bermuda, I had to get permission and a temporary ham
ticket from their government. Does Mexico have such a requirement for
visiting Canadian hams?

The last thing I need is some overzealous customs agent seizing my rig.


What do I have to do to be perfectly legal?


Thanks,
VE3PMK

Glenn, thanks for the pointer. That was very informative. To be honest,
it's not worth ~$75 bucks and all that bother just to squeeze a little
QRP DX into a few hours over the week. I will be nice when they join the
ranks of 'reciprocal ticket' no additional special permits required.

(Bermuda was simply a two page fax to their embassy (copy of my ticket
and a letter asking for permission.) Zero fees, and a temporary Bermuda
license arrived in the mail about 3 week later.)

Thank you again for taking the time to post the reply.


Pat, VE3PMK
