3-Pack Motorola Talkabout T260TPG Rechargeable Two-Way Radios (Green) Expired

The likelihood is extremely low. The FCC won't bother trying to chase down every little radio transmission (unless of course you're openly blasting public safety channels, which any UHF/VHF ham radio will intersect with), and they're not actively engaged in monitoring-for-the-sake-of-enforcement on amateur users. There simply isn't funding for that. Now if you're a serial abuser who is trying to hijack communications and blast insane propaganda? Yeah, they'll try to find you. But even then it's an endless cat-and-mouse game that they frequently lose.

That said, the amateur radio folks (who will administer your ham radio license test if you're interested) tend to be a very odd group of folks who take a lot of pride in their hobby. During my license test (which I took specifically for off-road communications), I was made to sit in on basically a whole weekly "meeting", where the folks proudly reminded each other (probably for the hundredth time) that when a major catastrophic event hits, the government is going to call on them to help coordinate disaster response and emergency communications. As evidence of this, they pointed to the fact that Randy, one of the members, helped relay communications one time years ago when there was a boat dead in the water off the coast; I'm all but certain they raise this example every time they meet, and that Randy is basically viewed as a demigod within that group. Presumably, they're entirely convinced that all the major cellphone networks will go down one day, along with all satellite communication channels, and then it will be their time to shine! I'm guessing somewhere out there, there are a bunch of horseback-riding Paul-Revere-worshipping cultists who are just waiting for all amateur radio to go down too, so it can be their time to shine!

... Sorry, got a little side-tracked. Anyway, during my exam/meeting, they also talked about catching unlicensed users. Some of these devoted amateur radio folks make it a hobby to sit around trying to track down where signals are coming from, trying to work together to triangulate approximate locations of communications, etc. In 100% seriousness, I can absolutely see these guys sitting around for hours a day just scanning channels and listening for potential unlicensed users, so that they can try to track them down. And then if they do (which, let's be honest, they won't)? Well, nothing actually; they have no real authority. They'll report you to the FCC and the FCC takes it from there. It's basically like a bunch of junior/volunteer Sheriffs on community patrol-- all they can really do is report you to the real authorities.

Note that I am not encouraging unlicensed radio usage (again, I have a license and generally adhere to the rules of public radio communication). But if we're just explicitly addressing your question, the likelihood is next to zero.

I was just about to post this. Got for 35 out the door after Walmart cancelled my last order and I complained for a discount.

I have no need or use but now I own.

This is the way

The one in this thread is good for play and hiking. Please don't listen to the worthless morons pushing a more complicated radio and insisting you break Federal law, just because they're comfortable being assholes to the wider community.

Be better. And it's really not hard to be better than them. Besides, you want to teach your kid that cooperating with other people isn't worth fifteen bucks and an afternoon of effort?
