Yay finally new thread lol

Guys got any news on DMR repeaters?
Thinking of just getting a VHF rig again instead haha

Just refer to the SKMM Guideline here

https://www.mcmc.gov.my/skmmgovmy/files/att...ervice_2012.pdf

It has the steps from start to finish regarding on how to obtain a license. Particularly on page 14 to 32

I am not really familiar with the online version but last time, the computer version is held at a venue monthly.
I took the normal one in Shah Alam where everyone answered on a paper like SPM

Basically the steps are

1. Register for examination slip
2. Go exam
3. Pass exam
4. Get certificate
5. Use certificate to apply for callsign
6. Wait until callsign approved
7. Can start to use radios

You would need to pay twice. This is an admin fee.
One time for exam (RM 50), another is for callsign application (RM 60).

License fee is actually just RM 24 annually.

Best to extend the license to 5 years otherwise, you have to pay RM 60 every year just for admin fee.

I come from an Electrical Engineering background so my experience in that part might differ.
I just did one past year exam once and that was enough to pass the RAE exam.

Just try to find past year papers and try those. The questions asked are very basic electrical stuff so don't have to go too deep into reading. As for the law side, the guideline by SKMM should cover everything.

Usually, there are also pre-RAE classes/seminar. Those are extremely helpful as well but not sure if there are any during PKPP

Here is one online class I came across if you are interested

As for AROC Class A, you need to take the RAE + Morse code. The only extra exam is the morse code. You have to receive and send at a rate of at least 12 words per minute (page 16).

Passing the RAE itself already grants you eligibility for Class B. Usually people just apply for Class B while waiting to go into Class A since the morse code exam schedule is different than RAE.

Right. I thought they removed the requirement since it is not in the "eligibility section"

Short answer, no. It does not have
It is non-ionizing radiation.

Ionizing radiation is something like x-ray machines.

This shop seems to sell HF rigs at reasonable prices.
I've never bought from this shop so do your due diligence as I can't vouch for it.

Probably one day.
