The Meshtastic firmware actually has an 'Is Licensed' [0] checkbox if you want to operate with both the privileges and restrictions of operating under that license.
The major upside is transmit power and the downside is not being able to use encryption.

- lrvick 1y agoI would also note that I have never once heard of enforcement on using encryption but we -have- seen enforcement of using too much transmit power without a license. So if you like, get a license, crank transmit power, then use encryption all you want and don't worry about it. It will be enforced about as fast as movie torrenting.
