QUOTE(bioweapon83 @ Jan 13 2007, 04:33 AM) I dont know where I put all the books that I had. Hopefully I manage to find it and pass it to you all for photocopy. I am using a Icom V8 but yet not really active with it compare to last time. Planning to get Yaesu FT8900R hahaha i met up with this 9w2 fella the other day, he was using the 8900, seems that a lot of people seem sto like this model very much ... dual bander with crossband repeater, another 9w2 from Segamat was using it and another dualbander as a repeter around the Segamat area during the flood ... his own repeater ... If you guys really interested, let Earl or myself know maybe you guys can group together and study for the exam. I dont think I can remember much on those formulas but for those who in E&E field should face no problem on answer questions in RAE. It's good to see more and more ppl are interesting in this hobby as Asian country like our neighbour Indonesia and Japan have quite high ratio number of ppl enjoying ham radio. BTW RG58 in Pasar Rd is about RM1.50 last time (2004) but not sure the current price.  haha like that one day we come out yumcha la ... see how la ...

Hopefully experienced HAMsters here can guide me. i am currently with this TTCC club, a commercial club, but they are restructing it and relaunching it this March ...Bro Earl, which club are you in? Is it nescessary to join a club? Added on February 7, 2007, 12:18 amAny suggestions on the time and the place we can meet? 1. wEtwEtwAtEr - PJ,Subang,Sunway,Cheras (Weekend nights) there is others around like SCS too ... but this is kinda expensive ... if you are with a commercial club u can own this sets "legally" or else u will need an AA to be owning one of this amateur radio set ...

there is 2 kinds of club ...
commercial clubs and ham clubs commercial clubs allows you to transmit and listen TTCC(Titiwangsa COmmunications Club), SCS ham clubs allow u to transmit if u have a callsign, or else u only apply for SWL license ... but normally as long as u have a callsign u can use the repeaters from ASTRA and MARTS ... their national links are very good ... yeah there is an exam this May, hope i can take it too ... just let me know la, if you guys wanna comm out yumcha ...
