MCMC should allow more walkie talkie sets.
It is very disappointed that class B and class A amateur licensees can only use certain of approved walkie talkie sets. To bring in any unapproved sets, one needs to apply for an AP and has to pay some amount to the government.
Some walkie talkies have been in the market in other parts of the world, why can I import them? What is the point to get SIRIM or other certified in order to import them?
I talked on the eqso yesterday. One ham told me that America has got rid of the CW test. He was surprised that Malaysia still practises CW test here. Although CW test will not be offering after 2007, what will it has any impact to class A and B licensees? It is still unknown. The MCMC has not made any changes to the existing amateur laws. Kind of sad of staying in Malaysia.
