How do you know they are not on a boat and unlicensed radio is often referred to as pirate radio.

in case you are just uninformed and not being an anonymous ass.
I can't tune to 666Mhz.
Yep. HAM is not anonymous, so people tend to behave themselves.
20m has some issues with radio pirates spewing hate speech, but mostly it is very civil.
For HAM, 10m is edge of VHF
HAM bands in the VHF range will be opening up! I am going to rig for 10m and 15 and see what happens.
I might a QSO from Europe with a little luck.
My aim is much better when I have a script saying I will hit something/someone.
They build the victor's economy if they loot everything that is nailed down...
somehow we have forgotten that lesson: Pillage, THEN burn.
Dude,
use nipple clamps.
I cover the motorcycle horn with my thumb. If I don't think of pushing it, a sudden move by a car will make me grip the handlebars tighter, triggering the horn.
The High beam is also a finger trigger on this bike, sometimes I cover that too, which means I flash the driver as well; think of someone inching forward to make a right turn on a light, I tense a little and the high beam comes on.
Seeing how I don't subscribe to loud pipes save lives, most people cut me slack if I hit the horn.

Short distance, dongle needs to be just a few inches from the receiver to enable the ignition. Just do it in reverse, if a cell phone is within 2-3 feet of the steering column, the driver door, it shuts off.

At least the horse has a sense of self preservation when the drunk driver tells it to do something stupid.
Meh, make them drive a Yugo or Trebant, or stick them on 50cc scooters for life.
Cruel and unusual, but effective.
It is funny, you said the same thing, but I got modded down... go figure.
Of course no learned person believed it, but on the other hand over a hundred years in 1633 later Galileo gets tried for supporting the Heliocentric model.
What someone believed, vrs what one would say publicly, was very different at the time. After all, no one expects the Spanish Inquisition!
To be fair, they did not have a way to test those ideas, and once they did, they fell out of favor.
While the common sailors may have feared falling off the edge of the earth, the debate with Columbus and others was just how big around the earth was.
