[QUOTE="kingfish, post: 3749836, member: 50496"] While I agree with what p238shooter says here, I am going to add something that might raise the ire of some hams here. I will state that I have my extra class ham license. That being said, if you are not particularly interested in getting a license and taking up the hobby the capability to talk in a SHTF situation could be valuable. Buying a used transceiver so you could communicate with others is valuable. If we get to that point where only amateur radio is the best mode of communication, we are a long way past the point where I would be concerned about violating FCC regs. of operating a transmitter without the appropriate license. It will be all about surviving and the rule of law is just a fond memory. [/QUOTE]
