Hi! Thanks for your excellent licence information service! I have just managed
to get a 9M2 licence after 7 weeks of trying and 5 visits in person to the
Communications and Media Commission. A complete application needs the
following:-
Copy of home licence
Letter of Introduction from home radioSociety
Letter of Introduction from MARTS (NB Letter of Introduction from 9M2 local was
rejected)
Sworn oath regarding secrecy
Copy of passport details
Completed form Application for Apparatus Assignment(s) (Amateur Service)
Sketch of proposed antenna
I had to pay fees as follows:- RM 60 Admin fee for new application, RM 31 for
licence for 1 year. A 5 year licence is possible but seems not easy to get.
Useful contacts are as follows:-
MARTS Vice President is 9W2AC, Zool agzol
at tm.net.my
CMC contact Rozaida rozaida at cmc.gov.my
NB 9M2xx type calls are not possible. It must be 9M2/Home call.
Best regards Ian 9M2/G3TMA

Hi Again de G3LIV.
I tried for my 9M2 license again in Jan 2002, Having had 12 week period cover
for 2 previous years.
Time involved was many weeks again, But new application form has a box to tick
if you want to apply for 5 YEAR COVER. Try to send 5 year application before
the year in which you were covered for short period previously and they will
wave the other paperwork and consider it just a renewal of old cover.
At least that what happened in my case. I did this in the FEB 2002. Paid up in
full at same time. I was leaving mid MAY from
But I now have a FULL license for 5 Years. Cost was Total about £50/$75 for the
application costs and 5 year cover.
It just takes OH so long. Nothing seems to speed the process up. My Hotel would
not allow operation without the Paperwork being presented. I asked license dept
for just a short letter of intent, but could not get any answer.
But at least its a start. Thanks for GOOD info on your pages.
