USA Walkie-Talkie

Featured Replies

If I were to buy walkie-talkies from USA (FRS & GMRS types), can I operate them in Thailand? Do I need a license? If I need a license, where do I go to apply? I live in Chiangmai.

The search button is your friend. No, really!

Usa Spec Frs Family Radio Service Handheld Radios To Use In Los

On a general level

All radio transceivers used in LOS have to be type approved by the PTT
Imported units have to be submitted to the PTT for testing before being cleared by customs

As already mentioned the frequencies used by FRS are not allocated for public use

Use of FRS radios in LOS can result in arrest and appearance in court.

Short: You will get very big trouble.

Buy some red 245 MHz mobiles here. Cheap, Inexpensive, Legal.

I live in Chiangmai. Do you know where I can buy these "red" walkie-talkies?

FRS & GMRS (462 & 467Mhz), Yes just like in Europe, totally illegal.

The US Walkie Talkies (motorola and other brands) are sold in Panthip Plaza.

Electrical place on ground floor at Big C Hangdong (not Home Pro....go to opposite end of the Mall) has the Red and Black ones, starting under 2K. . Don't even think about using anything that is not approved, it may be confiscated and you may get booted out.

Is there any way of purchasing a frequency for commercial use in a certain area?

We tried using the common thai ones before but every channel was packed with Thais chatting away. If prices were reasonable wouldnt mind a private channel.
