The Malaysian Amateur Radio Transmitters’ Society (MARTS) is a non-profit organization that caters to Malaysian amateur radio enthusiasts. MARTS was founded in 1952 and has subsequently become a National Society.

The Malaysian Amateur Radio Transmitters Society (MARTS) is an organization dedicated to promoting and supporting the amateur radio community in Malaysia. MARTS provides a platform for amateur radio operators to come together, share knowledge, and engage in activities related to amateur radio. They organize events, contests, training programs, and provide resources and assistance to amateur radio enthusiasts across the country. MARTS also represents Malaysian amateur radio operators at the national and international levels, advocating for their interests and contributing to the development of amateur radio in Malaysia.

Additionally, one of the benefits of joining the Malaysian Amateur Radio Transmitters Society (MARTS) is access to the largest national repeater linking system in Malaysia. This extensive network of repeaters allows for enhanced communication coverage and reach across the country. By utilizing this network, MARTS members can connect with fellow operators in different regions, fostering a stronger sense of community and providing opportunities for collaboration and information exchange. The national repeater linking system offered by MARTS further enhances the amateur radio experience for its members, enabling them to communicate effectively over vast distances within Malaysia.

The main goal of the organization is to increase amateur radio’s popularity and support in Malaysia. A QSL bureau is provided by the organization as a benefit to members who frequently communicate with amateur radio operators abroad.
