| Hi Everyone,
|
| Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I purchased a
backup handheld radio
| for cross country flights, etc. and was wondering if it is
permitted to use
| it so I can contact my family while flying over the local
area.
|
| I would use a frequency not used locally for any other
purposes.
|
| Your thoughts?
|

| Thanks,
