>>51045063They sure as fuck will.
ITs the most exciting thing for them to do.
Radio popo wanna b's
there are bands that do not require a ham ticket
Im getting a BF-F9 V2+ and that diamond 77 antenna.
I want it to have in case I ever need it. They sell some that are part 95 fcc and some that are not so make sure if you want to do it legal and get your ham you buy the fcc certified one.
with the non regulated ones you can tune between channels n shit. be good for a go bag cuz who gives a fuck if you really ever needed it in a true emergency.
transmit on police and fire bands could be helpful but being able to listen is also cool
a good scanner takes care of the listening shit but they dont transmit if you ever needed to reach out and touch someone
I watched a video of a guy talking to a satellite with a BF9R using a little antenna standing about 4 ft off the ground to someone half way around the world. No booster or anything
