It has been a unique and fulfilling experience in being the part of the team bringing out this publication, which to me has never been just a Technical Journal or merely a Newsletter. It has always been a perfect blend of Technical Knowledge and Emotions. Thanks to the young & enthusiastic Editorial Board Members, sharp and brilliant Authors, who provided useful inputs on the state of the art technologies and the emerging trends in broadcast world, and the Veterans, who had been enriching us with their vast experiences, through their Memoirs. This journey could never been so pleasant & satisfying, had there not been continuous, encouraging responses and support from all of you, our Esteemed Readers. Friends, In this issue, we have tried to bring out glimpses of BES EXPO 2010, held at New Delhi in past quarter, along with gists of the papers presented during the conference, for many of those, who couldn't make it to the event. We have tried to report various major activities undertaken at BES local Chapters, We have tried to incorporate technical articles on various relevant issues and with lots of persuasion, we have succeeded in bringing back the colour to the Magazine. While knowing well that the real colour lies in the eyes of the readers, We will look forward for your reactions on this, your very own Magazine. With lots of best wishes to you, family and friends, Ashish Bhatnagar [email protected] 2 October’09 - March'10 From the President Dear Members, The term of the present council of BES is ending shortly and through this Newsletter I would like to thank all of you for providing the support to the current council during various activities in the past 2 years. The executive along with the council members have tried their level best to work in a transparent manner for the growth of the society. Chairmen of various BES committees and BES local chapters have also poured in their best efforts in this direction. Despite the worldwide industry recession BES Expo 2010 the 16th International Conference and Exhibition on Terrestrial and Satellite Broadcasting has gone quite well. The conference was attended by around 1100 delegates from media & industry and the exhibition also witnessed enhanced participation of exhibitors and visitors. I would like to congratulate and compliment various council members and committee chairmen who have worked hard to make the event a grand success. The broadcasters in our country will be facing another challenge in October' 2010 when the country hosts Common Wealth Games. We are all gearing up and I take this opportunity to give my best wishes to all those who are directly and indirectly involved in this activity. My best wishes to all of you as well for happy times ahead. R.R.Prasad President BES(I) 3 October’09 - March'10 BES (I) Council 2008-2010 Name Designation Phone (Off.) Phone (Res.)
