But it would, of course, require an intermediate or full amateur radio licence to be able to be used as it is now.

At one time I would have agreed with you, but activity on the amateur bands generally is so subdued that I'm considering returning several sets in my collection back from 10 metres to their original frequencies.

Damo666, ref: The aerial on the 020, there's absolutely no rush. The radio has had the wrong aerial for about 35+ years now. A little while longer isn't going to hurt.
