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...
