No longer need to seek out a good used VHF radio, after watching on Craigs List, I came across a brand new one , with all the necessary programs installed , that was still in the box ,unused, made a deal , now , just have to install it.

Hi Mike, I got the information & form from Freeway Communications, as well as a quote for an ICOM VHF Radio, hopes this helps.

I am planning to do the course as I am looking to be licensed for a Marine radio. However, I am also planning to buy a couple hand held radios for hunting as the FRS/GMRS radios we have now just don't offer enough distance due to the line of sight operation... I was of the understanding that operating any UHF/VHF radio that could transmit required licensing. Looks like I have some research to do.
Where did you find the info that stated $40 plus the S/N was all you needed?? If this is the case it would make my decision to by the hand heald's a lot easier.

Hi mike, What course are you taking ? is it for a VHF radio license ? my understanding is , you just have to fill out a form with the radio serial number along with $40.00 & you are good to go.

Going to be switching over as well... I will keep my eyes open for deals.
We are planning to take the course this year along with Sailing lessons and chart plotting course..... We will see where that leads in a few years ;D

Just checking to see if anybody has a lead on a good used VHF Radio .
Already have a CB, but find that it's next to useless, https://bcrvcamping.createaforum.com/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif
