Just checking to see if anybody has a lead on a good used VHF |
|
Radio . |
|
Already have a CB, but find that it's next to useless, |

Hi mike, What course are you taking ? is it for a VHF radio |
|
license ? my understanding is , you just have to fill out a form |
|
with the radio serial number along with $40.00 & you are good to |
|
go. |

I am planning to do the course as I am looking to be licensed |
|
for a Marine radio. However, I am also planning to buy a couple |
|
hand held radios for hunting as the FRS/GMRS radios we have now |
|
just don't offer enough distance due to the line of sight |
|
operation... I was of the understanding that operating any |
|
UHF/VHF radio that could transmit required licensing. Looks like |
|
I have some research to do. |
|
Where did you find the info that stated $40 plus the S/N was all |
|
you needed?? If this is the case it would make my decision to by |
|
the hand heald's a lot easier. |

Hi Mike, I got the information & form from Freeway |
|
Communications, as well as a quote for an ICOM VHF Radio, hopes |
|
this helps. |

No longer need to seek out a good used VHF radio, after watching |
|
on Craigs List, I came across a brand new one , with all the |
|
necessary programs installed , that was still in the box |
|
,unused, made a deal , now , just have to install it. |
