I am a ham radio operator. Radios can come in all different sizes. Some are as
small or smaller then a deck of playing cards,(these are handheld radios), while
others are the big boxes classically thought of as ham radios.
==========================
I am too. A ham radio can fill a "relay rack" ... 19-in wide by 7-ft tall ... and I have even seen
a radio transmitter used for 'hamming' that was 6-ft wide, built into the wall between two
rooms, and from the room behind it, you could walk inside it to change the final power-
amplifier tubes. Some people are really serious about their hobbies!
On the other end of the spectrum ... on my high-school budget ... I once built a 'transceiver' ...
a combination transmitter/receiver ... into a school lunch box, and completed a two-way 'contact'
with it from upstate New York to Puerto Rico. I was overcome with joy, but my sister did not
share my enthusiasm, as it was her lunch box.

Yes and no. Some high power ham radios do not run on batteries, but use 12 volt power supplies. You can hook this up to a car battery and use that, but a higher power radio will exhaust its power quickly, so it is impractical. Smaller, handheld radios do run on batteries, and put out a lower power signal.
