VHF Hi/Lo Tx??
 

No, it is not illegal to transmit on Hi, just courtesy to start Lo and
go Hi if no response, or if you are pretty sure that Lo is out of
range. I wish my radio was preset Lo -- I forget to check too often.

My VHF has a H/L button for selecting high or low power on various
channels.. Some channels, when selected, are preset at Low power. If I push
and hold the HI/Lo button the indicator shifts to HI..

Am I actually overriding the preset low power when I do this??

Is it legal to do this on a channel that is suppose to be LO power (ie.
channel 13)??

Or if legal, is it ethical??
