also interested in knowing which version to grab

lmao imagine banning a fuckin walkie talkie

kek

land of the free btw <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

is it a good radio?

considering "entry-level" ham radio equipment starts at like 4 times the price

yes

Of course these things would be banned

Can you imagine if one of those fell into the wrong hands

technically they're getting banned because they aren't walkie-talkies

@foxhunt can you imagine if a knife fell into the wrong hands

🇬🇧

I don't know if you people got this but I was implying how in a country where you can easily and legally get a gun, a radio is banned

oh

@foxhunt good bant thank you

👍

a few things: 1) this exact ban is already present in europe lol

2) actually according to wikipedia these aren't covered in the ban and that article is alarmism

>Effective September 30, 2019, it becomes unlawful in the USA to import, manufacture, sell or offer to sell radio equipment capable of operating under both GMRS and FRS. This will not include amateur and other radio equipment that are not certified under Part 95, such as many handheld radios that are marketed for amateur use but are also able to transmit on FRS and GMRS frequencies.

@sb057 what do you mean this exact ban is already present in europe

it's not banned in europe

you just need a HAM license to transmit with it

it's perfectly legal to sell, buy, own and carry around without a license
