Ya think a spy would apply for a license in ANY radio service, Jim?


Depending on the situation, a ham license could be a good
"cover story" for a spy with transmitting equipment. The
FCC did shut down all ham bands during WW2...

But then that "cover story" only provides the government with a "head's
up" as to where the radio equipment is, Robert...Still doesn't make sense.

Brief transmissions from low power, mobile (portable) facilities makes
more sense.
