While amateur equipment is capable of operating as you suggest, it is no
more likely that you commiting rape because you have the equipment.

Hams have a license to loose if they partake in such nonsense.

Yes indeed! An "enterprising ham" (or anybody else) with a Yaesu Ft-2400,
FT-2500, or even the dual banders can clip a wire, desolder a jumper and

be
good to go up to and above 164 mhz.


164? That's nothin! Alinco handhelds go all the way to 174.


For instance. It is all too easy to modify one of these rigs to transmit

on
154, 155, or higher freqs. All one needs is an antenna that handles these
frequencies without causing the protection circuit to dump the radio. A

Rad
Shack discone is one such antenna....


Better yet: an antenna cut to resonance. Since 154Mhz is a popular

business
frequency, antennas designed to transmit here are inexpensive and

easy-to-find.
