marine fcc license for "land" use
Just a question about Marine FCC license.
Could a person get the FCC Marine radio license for use on-shore, to communicate with leisure craft off shore?
I had been thinking of getting the marine band license for a couple of reasons.
First off would be for search and rescue/ARES type situations. I live near a lake where they ocasionally have to search the water for people. I thought that would be beneficial for communication with boats from a "command post" area.
The second would be purely recreational, communicating with my non-ham brother-in-law while he is out in his boat.
So, I guess my question is, Could the FCC marine license be obtained for use on land??
Thanks,
Dave, KD8EBL
