Watts are important here. If you are talking 100 milliwatts or less, then
you can transmit pretty near anywhere and at pretty near any frequency.
These are the levels of garage door openers and cordless phones.

Garage door openers probably operate at less than 1 milliwatt and
cordless phones at a few milliwatts.
I can receive my 20 mw 434 Mhz walkie talkie several kilometres
away.

They are only good for 100 yards or less.

Or several kilometres.

But most lawmakers can't tell a watt from a
volt or an amp. They are technical minus people, or they would get a real
job and actually contribute to the society instead of parasiting off of it.

You have a strange idea of power levels.
