Let's work on that statement a little....
“To operate a Ham Radio LEGALLY you have to have a license”..
you can pick up a SW Radio at any pawn shop, antenna can be strung between trees and head sets cut the noise down...
I may have to refresh my muscle memory of Morse Code, but get a mobile set and it wont take me too long to find like minded Radio Freepers.
Do you think a “Shoot and scoot scenario might be coming up. LRRP background might come in handy down the line

After 26 years in communications in the military I can tell you that “shoot & scoot” is not as easy as some would say. As for Morse code I don’t find it much use as not many know it.

If you are trying to remain undetected it’s damn near impossible. If you key you mic for more than a few seconds you can be DF’d (direction finding). My favorite antennas were always the field expedients!
