Totally agree. Rules don’t matter when it matters. Now don’t go dipshir talking on a freq that you are allowed in until SHTF.
Or look in the obits, for “ham radio” find the guys name, search for his call sign, then coop that.
Not that I’d do that, but I thought how easy it would be when a friend ham died.
As long as you know the lingo and can walk the walk no one will think twice about an old ham on channel.
Or claim to have dementia sometimes and forget your cq’s and dx’s.

Your chances of getting anyone to even notice you on 2M if you jump on and use a channel for 5 minutes is not even on the radar.
Asshats spam the Hamvention talk-in and no one pays it attention.
