  3. Scanning the World with Amateur RadioA comprehensive guidebook on ham radio (1986) About the book Shri D.P. Dey, VU2DPD, Kolkata (fondly I call him Dipu Da) wrote-".... The book describes the basic radio theory and also contains a few pages of questions and answers for the Amateur Radio Operator's Certificate Examination, which is pre-requisite for establishing and operating his own ham radio station. Some circuits of transmitters including the addresses from where PCB can be obtained are also included in the book for the benefit of new licencees. The 60 odd clear photographs and sketches enhance the beauty and quality of the book. Sandeep has written the book in a simple way which is readily intelligible even to a non-technical reader. This book being the first of its kind in the North East Region and containing almost all information needed to become a ham, will act as a comprehensive guide-book for the learners." In the foreword, Sandeep writes "The author claims no originality in the book". Sri D.P. Dey (VU2DPD), an experienced ham from Calcutta, after going through the book  gave his remark -"..it is nothing but a humble way to quote himself."
