In reply to the discussion: Bundy Ranch Moocher Militia Stealing Food From FEMA Stockpiles? [View all]SeattleVet
(5,468 posts)25. How many of them are actually licensed to use them?
If they are using them on any frequencies within the ham bands they need an FCC Amateur Radio License. If they don't have the license, they are breaking yet another law. (Most of the BaoFeng's will transmit and receive well outside of the ham bands, but I wouldn't expect these guys to bother to find out what is legal and what is not. I can't see from the photo exactly which model of radio they have.)

That thing looks almost identical to the hunting knife we were issued at SERE.

I know. I have my HAM license. It is a tiered licensing system with progressively more frequencies

These are more than HAM radios. They can be programmed to listen/talk on any Law Enforcement radio

This is a pure Tea Party Production. Funded by Koch dollars. I doubt they're stolen...
