Describe your requirementFrequently asked questions
Do I need a permit to use a walkie-talkie in Malaysia?
Radio spectrum in Malaysia is regulated by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). Whether an assignment is required depends on the frequency band and power used; check the current MCMC rules before programming radios.
What is the difference between the UV-5R and the BF-888S?
The UV-5R is a dual-band (VHF and UHF) radio with a display and keypad. The BF-888S is a simpler UHF-only radio with preset channels, chosen for large crews.
