Although I kind of hope the rules get reworked a little. As a public service volunteer, it would be beneficial to be able to operate on many services with one radio, and many modern radios are capable of being &amp;quot;good citizens&amp;quot; on multiple services simultaneously.&lt;p&gt;(For example, we operate on Part 90, but may interact with members of the public who are carrying a Part 95 radio. Luckily as a ham, I believe I can at least operate my Part 90 radio on Part 97 bands.)</text><parent_chain><item><author>tzs</author><text>&amp;gt; MURS is the longest range VHF radio service that can be legally utilized by anyone without the need for a radio license.&lt;p&gt;The operator does not need a license, but I believe that the radio must be certified for MURS operation.
