Honestly being licensed does make since. Don’t want overlapping traffic on one frequency or have people use frequencies that could interfere with other services. Radio waves also can be deadly if you do something foolish like try to broadcast using a high wattage transmitter.
I might get my license but I would think if shit really did hit the fan then no one will worry about who has a license or not. But then I’m that situation I think having a real bug out plan would be move useful and just use the radio to receive info and maybe talk if needed.
Hopefully this all ends up being a fun hobby and nothing comes of it.
I just bought a ham radio. Nothing fancy. I need to learn how to use it.
Awesome, I've been thinking about it, but have no clue except that you have to be licensed to broadcast on the "King's Air".
