    I’m assuming you need to be ham certified to use one ?

    Ehhh.... By the letter of the law yes. But people also drive 58 in a 55 everyday. Unless you are doing something malicious with it like broadcasting on emergency services frequencies, there isn’t a black FCC van driving around trying to peg someone for a walkie talkie crime.

    Me neither lol

    I had it for a while to listen to the emergency services around me out of boredom and never really learned how to use it. I did a run a few weeks ago, showed up, someone said "press this this and this" and then it just worked. Like @mabepossibly, it works great for a $25 radio off Amazon.

    And yeah, the FCC has better things to do than bother some guys in the woods

    If you want to be legal without a ham license, probably the best option would be to buy a GMRS. They're about $75 for a pair.

    Weather looks good. 55 with a slight chance of rain.

    Rain all next week so plenty of mud.

    The $60 ARB one is supposed to be pretty good! I have been meaning to get one, and I think they have them Prime available

    Excited to test out the ATs man?
