Legally the PMR standard requires a fixed antenna.
The idea is to make them idiot proof so modification is not allowed.
A radio amateur who used their own equipment to transmit on the PMR frequencies would be in breach of their licence.

In general terms it is also not wise to assume that using radio amateur frequencies when not licenced will go unnoticed. During a disaster may be but in general terms the radio amateurs themselves can and will detect report and potentially track down trespassers. https://rsgb.org/main/about-us/honorary ... ordinator/
