The Amateur Radio service is the service.
All radio users are services.
Even CB and FRS are services, heck it is in the acrynom of FRS Family
Radio *Service*
the only difference between Amateur radio services and CB etc. from ITU
points of view is that Amateur radio is it's own services while CB and
other simular services are gathered under mobile service, along with
military.
And no licence is not the distinction, Netherlands and I think several
other countries have amatuer radio service as licence free under
conditions with registration, one of the conditions being the need to
pass a test.
