Was just wondering, because I've been looking at them, and studying up on what all I need to get the whole system set up.
Thought about maybe buying one now, just to have, if I could find something good at a decent price. No experience in operating it, so I'd still have to learn, then get it all set up.
Wasn't sure if I needed a license to actually purchase or just to operate. Haven't tried purchasing yet, but it seemed like I could just buy it considering the different places I've seen stuff for sale.
You can definitely buy without a license. Check out the brands Midland, Cobra, etc. The license is just for long range use purposes. Useful for your prepper stash but also for boating/fishing group trips, hunting, hiking etc.
