Only licensed gear may be operated on the ISM bands, and only licensed
amateurs are allowed to build their own unlicensed transmitters for
operation on the amateur bands. Sometimes the bands overlap. You can
try transmitting anyway, and if you use low enough power then probably
no one will notice. But if you send splatter all across the bands then
spectrum enforcement agents and/or (steamed) hams may come knocking on
your door with subsequent confiscation of gear and a fine. This
happened to a local.
