Default Yet Another Marine Radio question


"Bobsprit" wrote in message

10 meters is an amateur radio frequency and you'll have to have a ham
license to operate there.


I'm aware of that and will have the Tech. license shortly. But what type

of use
might I get out it aboard? I bought it mainly for it's 11 meter SSB, to

use
with out SSB Cherokee handheld.


That tech license won't allow you to operate voice on 10 meters. And
neither a ham rig nor a marine SSB transceiver will transmit in the 11M band
without modifications. 11M is the so-called Citizen's Band, but it little
more than a waste of precious bandwidth today.

However I know the rules are changing/have changed, so anything may be
possible soon.
