We have AT&T and were struck in S.E. Alabama with Verizon and so were customers with Verizon and T-Mobile. I don’t believe that the true cause will ever be disclosed.

I'm working on my general, I figure I might need it this fall. Also got a shortwave radio I've been playing with.

We have been playing with ham radios for a few years now. Never had a license.
To my knowledge the controllers have not prosecuted anyone for being in violation. They only send out a couple letters and that’s it.
Correct me if I’m wrong

I've heard from youtube videos that enforcement of the radio regs is rare, but I don't really know.

Here's a youtube channel with videos of classroom sessions for the different licenses; seems pretty good.
