MY dear friend I dont think u are interested....Please dont waste your time and my time so solly.......

Mind to elaborate further?

Ok my friend let me share with you something here. I was monitoring for more than 20 over years....I start monitoring since i was teen age. Most of my monitoring is on HF. Example broadcast station..we can receive..BBC. Voice of America...Radio Australia...Radio Netherland..Algeria and so on. NEWS well we get first hand news....
One of my favourite is I like to monitor on SSB....I have been monitoring Military, Police, Custom, Marine...secreat service , Air Craft and so on
even at one time when US Air Force was striking Iraq I was monitoring it live on the air.....Through my experience the most interesting
in communication is monitoring on Aviation Frequency. Among the Airman or Pilots they call it Aviation Language...i Love to monitor them.
For information aircraft is on VHF AM and also on HF SSB depend on which air route or sector.....they are.
Generally speaking, for VHF high flying aircraft can be received up to 200 miles away. As rule of a thumb, frequencies below 123Mhz are allocated to Tower and approach units and those above 123Mhz to Air Traffic Control Centre (ATCC) although there are exceptions to this.
For example the Air Traffic Control Tower which located at KLIA only guide aircraft take off and landing. and also ground communication with an aircraft. Any aircraft which fly 5,000 feet and above ATCC (Air Traffic Control Centre) which is located at Subang airport will take over......for info
this ATCC is not located at the Subang Tower at terminal three but they are located on the other side of the building. For your info i have been to this
place and talk to some of the ATC (Air traffic controller)

Example if one aircraft from KLIA going to fly to Bangkok....after given clearence from the control tower at KLIA.on 118.500
Example: ...."Lumpur TOWER this is Malaysian two three four....we are ready for take off..... Tower will reply ..." Malaysian two three four Climb 5,000 ft Report Lumpur Approch North on one two four two....You are clear for take off......

Example when the aircraft airborn at 5,000 ft they have to change to other freq example if the aircraft enroute to the north they
have to report to Lumpur Approch North on one two four two or they might say One Two Four Decimal Two (124.2) ...
Example when the aircraft MH234 rech at Flight Level 5,000 feet they will call on 124.2.....
......"Lumpur Approch North Malaysian Two Three Four on One Two Four Decimal Two..... the ATC will reply Malaysian Two Three Four Climb at Flight Level One Four Zero(14,000ft) right turn track direct KIMAT. and so on.....


Any aircarft enroute to Kota Kinabalu...after pasing certain miles towards south cina sea...the pilot have to report to Singapore ATCC on HF (High Frequency) on Eight Niner Four Two 8942........
For your info while typing this info at the same time i am also monitoring on 124.2 very heavy traffic now !!! and i am also monitoring on 9.435MHZ (HF) listening on broadcast...FEBC MANILA transmit in Indonesian Language.....

So there are alot of things to monitor...........
If you have a receiver try to monitor some of this aviation frequency.
to name a few....
124.200
119.450
118.800
118.500
Bare in mind there are on AM mode...
Hopefully you get some info now.....Enjoy yourself and have a nice weekend......

wow anoko tatz quite an explanation!

Anoko, i am not as rich as you to have played those sets

old but very good sets which would cover almost any bands ...

you dont have to ask questions like that with google, i can give you at least 10 page introduction on any sets ...

thats the whole reason of a forum ... to share ...

and most importantly this is amateur band ... amateur band does not cover air band of 108 - 137 ...

Added on September 15, 2008, 9:37 pmFrom what i see best if you would start somewhere ... at least have some experience on it before exploring a wider fields ... and not to mention spending more money ...

Exposing oneself to more sets, more antennas and then only move on to HF would be a better option ... when you move on to HF you don only take into consideration of what you practice in 2m ... its a whole more, propagation being the most important ... being able to read charts to determine the best propagation to Tx and Rx ...

but as for me most importantly ... the amount of money thats is needed to get a HF working for Rx and Tx ... example a decent HF set will set you back as much as 2k ... antenna 500? antenna tuner 2k?

Nice to hear that u like to do monitoring especially on the utility stations very interesting!....But so sorry some of us here might ask silly question .....monitor only ? Why not transmitting.....? They dont know that monitoring is more interesting than transmitting.....

umm arent those sets like super uber exp n high end wan??

My dear friend I am not rich too....i started my swl with an old junk HF receiver Valve set....What i am trying to say here is if you are really a real ham you should invest on a receiver first...you can buy those second hand receiver which cost you less than 1K sometimes when u are lucky you can get less than RM400.00 . I started my radio ham with just RM100.00 using a thumb wheel handy that time which dont have memory at all.......
Antenna i built my own ...at the moment if you want to go on HF try to monitor first...you dont need an ATU....I myself 99% of my RIG are second hand i cannot afford to buy a new rigs.....i built my own HF antenna...and also my 2 meter antenna. I dont spend RM500 to buy antenna. RM500 i can buy ATU .....Even the manual ATU you can built your own. What u need is just variable capacitor and
a coil.....So you dont need to be rich to become a ham.....

Added on September 15, 2008, 10:04 pmThe reason I am here is just to share some knowledge with you gentleman. But if you think that i am a trouble maker....i just leave u gentleman with what u are. But what i c here is. I think i need to give some good advice....how to be a good radio ham there are ways to solve some of you problems......Most of our people here today when there is a problem they will ran away from it. For me i am difference when there is a problem we go for problem solving...we will try to give some solution....if you like.....otherwise.....I will leave this forum....to the youngster...who think they are great..!!!! 73....

My dear friend who says so the amateur band does not cover the air band....I bought IC2200 a few years ago it covers the air band...most of the dual band which most of the 9Ws USED TODAY also covers the air band....

Please dont leave. We need positive advice to improve.. In fact you are sharing lots of information with us.. Seriously most people dont give a f to type so long to share information with newbies and call you to google.. What he meant actually is amateur band located by mcmc does not cover the airband.. Whether we can monitor legally or not i dont know and thats for you to tell us.. Maybe you can share HOW you learn how to homebrew your equipments? If you feel teaching how to homebrew is spoon feeding just let us know where we can source more information.. Thank you. 73'

not my point, if u can notice nowdays - those who are getting into this as a hobby has many other types ... some who just like to talk - those who can "rag chew" whole day and nite long ....those who like the technical side of it, those who would make their own stuff - diy all the way ... but to a certain extent ...those who got into the hobby because of friend, clubs or some clubs ... and of couse those who likes radio for being what it is ... radio

now every one must have a point where they start and start something somewhere, 2m is the best entry point to radio telecommunications ... because its easy and cheap to play - to a certain extent ...

my point is if one cannot even cover 2m how to move on to other bands?

thats my point ... and everyone is welcomed here ...

Added on September 15, 2008, 10:43 pmhomebrewing is all about getting the correct or right person who is willing to share with you his collection of diagrams and charts ... and maybe some secret equipment he has to get the job done ...

my experience with homebrewing was that one time when a so called friend got me a diagram for a folded dipole, there is just some missing measuements which he never gave me ... only when the pile of steel i had tak jadi and was left there for damn long when i asked him again only he said he forgot to tell me something ...

so most importantly is someone who is willing tooshow and teach u the diagram ... of most which u can find on th itnernet but the materials in those diagrams are not something u can find in MY ...

i think diying n homebrewing is great! just tat sometimes like earl-ku said most of the time u find info in the net u canot find the things u need here in msia so if somebody knows hw to get the thing or use a similiar wan n shares wif every1, i think it'd be great!
