ok, thanks.
This license is good for both VHF and MF/HF(SSB)?
I'm upgrading my VHF to a DSC model soon and will also be getting an MSI#.

I know the rules for using VHF (no profanity and to follow designated
protocol, etc.), however my girlfriend and I are considering purchasing
handheld VHF transceivers to double as walkie talkies for lowering the
anchor, etc. on unassigned and unmonitored public channels at low
frequency. Is this something people do? - I've heard transmissions on some
of these unmonitored channels that do not follow any protocol.

Sorry for all the questions...

Dan
