But 2 Meters you must have a LICENSE
THere is no charge for the license but the test is just shy of fifteen bucks. (Yes there is a test)... Got my license in 1968 by the way. Did my lAST upgrade in 2006 and I mean LAST .
I run with both 2 meters (usually 146.52 simnplex) and CB 19/13 on long hauls 19 only on short) Never know when you will be informed of a road closure in time to exit and spend a restful night instead of a blood pressure increasing traffic jam.
