Excuse me. Do you *really* need a license?
New user. I know I may (hopefully not) get 9 angry replies and 1 who
understands my ignorance and will provide an articulate reponse, but I'll take my chances. So what if I invent my call sign, learn the lingo, and start using my 2M radio without jumping through all the hoops to get licensed. Does anyone *really* care? Is 'big brother' really going to bust through my front door with a SWAT team? Of the 1+ million HAM operators, how many are actually fined each year for doing what I'm considering? If I stick with it instead of packing the radio up and putting it next to my photography equipment, I will get licensed, I promise. Also, even if I *really do* need a license to transmit, I don't need a license to turn the radio on and listen, do I? Rick Bryan New York, NY |
