One option is to see if there's any GMRS repeaters, and especially any repeater groups, in your area. The license is cheap and you can still go 50w with it, but it's not as popular as the HAM bands. There's a few really good, but simple enough, mobile stations. Pick up a better antenna (height is king!), and you'll be able to listen & talk with the locals.
