I've been thinking of getting a HAM license for a while know. This might be a
good reason. Thanks for the reply.

You're most welcome. I would suggest contacting whatever ham club
is local to your area. Such clubs frequently teach classes designed to
bring newcomers into the fold, as it were.

Happy hunting.

Hi. Is there any way that someone could experiment w/ RTTY w/o a HAM
license? Perhaps w/ a MUR?

MURS frequencies are limited to two watts power out, no matter if
you're base or mobile.

To answer the why question, just because I'm curious. Thanks.

I guess the answer would be along the lines of "I guess you could,
but why bother?"

Getting an amateur license at least gives you some of the
electronics background you'll need to enjoy such experimentation a lot
more than you might otherwise.

Happy hunting.

El Cheapo CB handi talkies.
Low power version under Part 15 rules.
Will work fine for experimenting over a couple hundred feet.
