Walkie-talkies, as the abbreviated name wearable radio stations, are of various types. Some of them do not require permission at all, others need to be obtained according to a simplified scheme, and for using the third they will have to go through a complicated bureaucratic procedure.
Instruction manual
1
Having acquired a radio station operating at a frequency of 27.14 MHz with an output power of not more than 10 mW, proceed with its use immediately after removal from the packaging. No permits have been required to use it since 1988. True, such radios operate at a distance not exceeding several tens of meters, moreover, they are single-channel. Not for nothing formally they are even considered to be children’s, although in practice they are used not only by children.

If you want to use walkie-talkies without permission, but don’t want to be limited to such short distances, purchase LPD or PMR devices. They can be used without any formalities since 2006. The first of them should have an output power of no more than 10 milliwatts inclusive, the second - no more than 0.5 watts inclusive. Remember, however, that the facts of selling walkie-talkies with standard LPD output power like PMR are very common. Formally, the use of such stations is illegal.

In order to start using a CB radio station, it is necessary to carry out a simplified registration procedure in relation to it. When purchasing a station, make sure that its output power does not exceed 4 watts. Find the local branch of the organization called Rossvyazkomnadzor, bring the station there and register. This procedure is free. Then find another organization called the radio frequency center. Find out in it whether a mandatory call sign is required in your area. If so, pay a small fee and get a call sign. Familiarize yourself with the validity period of the received documents and update them in a timely manner.

If you live in the territory of Ukraine, the Republic of Belarus or the USA, you can use the C-Band radio stations without registration. Find the maximum permitted power of such a station from local legislation.

If you want to use an amateur radio station of the fourth category (and there are almost no portable ones), first contact your local radio club with the appropriate authority with a statement about the desire to pass the exam. Your application will be reviewed after about a month, during which you need to prepare for the exam. Learning Morse code is not required (this is only necessary for the third, second and first categories). Take the documents with you to the exam, a list of which will be provided in advance. Arriving at the club, fill out the form, and then pass the exam. Then, the club representative will send the exam result to your local radio frequency center without your participation. You will soon receive the answer in the mailbox of your entrance. Take it with you, get a radio station. You can make it yourself - amateur radio stations, unlike all of the above, do not require certification. Then, together with the purchased or manufactured radio station and the received documents, come to the radio frequency center. There she will be checked for compliance with current standards, after which they will send you two more necessary documents, one of which will talk about assigning you a category, and the other - a call sign. After that, start using the radio station.
