Is there really anything that could go wrong if I use my handheld ham radio on a currently unoccupied frequency or pmr446 frequency at like 500mW to 1W and maybe a stubby antenna?
> get a license
I am very much interested in doing so.
Just thinking about ways I could practically use my radios on a small scale like occasional hiking, inside a house or between two cars driving somewhat closely to the same destination, shit like that.
Obviously most of these things are illegal or barely illegal (for example using pmr446 frequencies at 500mW is fine but the radio isn't supposed to have a detachable antenna) considering I would not announce my callsign and/or hand another radio to a friend and such.
But if I do things like that I wanna do them in ways that do not bother anybody.
