[QUOTE="securitysix, post: 2679568, member: 32714"] I think it's an interesting idea and has some potential. I probably wouldn't buy them for myself because, like aviator, I'd want to learn how to program them myself if I were to get them. Might make a good gift idea for someone who is kind of interested in ham radio or prepping and doesn't know where to start, though. Edit: I also understand that it is legal to own and listen to ham equipment without a license. A license is only required if you want to [i]transmit[/i] on the ham bands. And if SHTF bad enough for the government to go tits up, the license would be a moot point and having the equipment on hand would be a good idea. [/QUOTE]
