But the point is moot if the OP didn't realize he'd need a licence and all that and is unwilling. Size might not even be a big concern, I was just throwing it out there. And for the record I have no idea how much ham activity is in Central America, what bands they use, I haven't really been into the hobby since my college days.

That's small. I wonder how common those ones are.

I suspect there are all sorts of reasons why ham (and CB) radio isn't going to be useful to the OP.
