You can use the ISM bands for free.

What open hardware can legally do any useful (open source, auditable, and secure) encrypted voice communication at long distance via ISM?

I’m just coming back to this thread to answer some of the other comments over the next few days, but WiFi does count here. It operates on ISM bands, AFAIK there are OSS chips, and it allows encryption.

What’s more interesting to me is that the M17 project has found some chips on aliexpress that are lower level and work on a multitude of bands. I’m trying to find this and will update when I do.
