The great thing with doing the radio license this way is that it's valid for South Africa, Botswana and Namibia. Getting the license from another forum doesn't get you access to other countries, only South Africa.

It is actually not valid. You will still need your local paperwork - ie: CRAN / BOCRA.

But ORRA does assist in this regard. It takes two weeks though.
