If you truly are a NOMAD then you can afford to hang around for a while, you should be used to working from a hotel room.... It is clear what Thailand's strategy is here, particularly at neighbouring embassies which are the cheapest to get to, if you can't afford to fly home to apply for the VISA then they will do this to you, it has kind of been going on for years.

Pretty much anything LEO-GEO which I work with professionally, - I am considering adding maybe some DIY VHF/UHF Helical or Tonna type antennas if the Motor current remains low enough (having VHF/UHF will open quite a lot of doors) but am a bit worried about it looking a bit like a Spy Base at least with just a 1.9M it just looks like a farang with an appetite for Foreign TV channels. The terminal will be completely web-based access and is prototype, what for I don't think I really know right now 🙂 Needless to say a lot of the expense is absorbed by a company..

I am following with great intersest, I am currently setting up my rig, which is party professional-use and part hobby, And I hope to get it on the roof in about 2 weeks after some structural works. I am lining a 1.9M antenna with fine copper mesh to aid Ku Band. I have received (Customs was a nightmare) a SP02/HR Az/El motor to mount the antenna on. I have got a Chapparal Co-Rotor for Dual C and Ku Band use with electrical Skew control.. I knocked together an Arduino to control the Skew over Ethernet So for the internal equipment I have put together MD02 Motor Control with Ethernet Agilent 8594E 3 GHz spectrum analsyer - With GPIB to ETHERTNET converter Threadripper Pro 16 core Server, 512 GB RAM, RTX5090 GPU for AI/ML DVB-S2X (ACM/CCM) 6909 TBS PCI-E card Hack RF ONE - 20 MHz Software Defined Radio (Working on getting LimeSDR but not sure about customs) So a pretty solid set-up, wish I could go bigger than 1.9M but I think the neighbours would have something to say about it 🙂

Foreign currency account

For Kasikorn you need to go to one of these branches as not all branches have the service and know much about it... https://www.kasikornbank.com/th/personal/Account/Documents/list-branch-account.pdf Money in the FCD will not be guaranteed by the government and they will charge 500 baht commicion on every inward remmitance regardless of value. -
I bought same sort of thing years ago, totally fake, it was high dosage.

Thankyou for sharing, hope it serves as a deterrent to others.. -
You should be asking about people living on 40K a month who get sick and how it ends for them... No money for medication/treatments etc..

Cancelling work permit late
Satcommlee replied to Lolothai's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The royal decree a few years ago put the onus on the employer to notify the Labour Department within 15 days.. I know this as I tried to cancel a work permit back in 2021 but was turned away, they were not interested.. I still have the old work permit book and had since received a digital work permit. I don't think you have anything to worry about. -
There is a rule that the laptop must not be worth more than 40'000 THB if you want it to get through Customs easily... If it is worth more than 40'000 THB you may need an import licence and/or type approval.. I bought a Galaxy Book 4 edge from Ebay and it flew through customs.. it cost $1000 only.. I was aware of the 40K THB rule..

Thaksin Shinawatra Covered His Entire 6-Month Hospital Cost

I suppose it was cheaper than privatising the department of corrections. -
Anyone ever taken anti anxiety meds in Thailand?
Satcommlee replied to ubonr1971's topic in Health and Medicine
I know I am going to sound like typical unhelpful response, but you should see a doctor.. people are suggesting SSRI like Sertraline for example but this is usually for moderate to severe mood imbalances, like depression, PTSD etc like on the upper end of severity. While not addictive, it can affect the chemical balances in the brain and be life changing if not used correctly. Fluoxetine also available OTC, as well as Sertraline, Trazodone, Amitryptaline (lots) but take recommendation from Doctor and not ThaiVisa 🙂 -

The key thing is not to leave it too long, speak to your bank immediately for time limits. If it is a Credit Card, it is the banks money If it is a debit card, it is your money.
