It's not really unusual.  Remote control hobbyists do have amateur
licenses and use portions of the spectrum for that purpose.  As long
as your use is personal (i.e., of a home-hobbyist nature), then there
should be no problem, as long as you observe power and frequency
limits.  If "Sunswick Engineering" is just a ruse, as you suggest,
then this shouldn't be a problem.
