Since the FCC has dropped licensing for vhf marine use, have they also dropped the requirement of the radio actually used on waterways or one station so many miles from the waterway. Years ago the Lewis and Clark re-enactors were going up the Missouri River. They had chase cars but could not communicate if they were farther than so many miles from the River. Since the FCC has dropped a license requirement, as the marine channels just an expanded MIRS setup? Just trying to find out the rules now. Maybe that is a segment that I need to monitor.
