I have been a ham for over 40 years. Sometimes there are people like truckers that get the entry license just to avoid getting in trouble with the FCC for having an amplifier in their truck or an ham radio with them. Just having an license doesn't mean that these people are going to transmit in their legal restricted areas. Ham radios can be modified easily to transmit anywhere from CB frequencies to police, military or commercial frequencies.

If you are concerned about monitoring someone you just use a wide band frequency analyzer which if close enough if pick up your signal no matter where you transmit even if you don't know where they will transmit.

The tech entry level license can just be a cover to protect them if somebody questions why they have a ham radio. Also you don't need an outdoor antenna, some people do fairly well with an indoor antenna in their attic for example.
