How does the FCC enforce this sort of thing? Are they listening in to certain frequencies nationally with the ability to triangulate a handheld down to actually identifying someone?

Most of the time they get a complaint, and they investigate.

		Wow, you mail them the complaint? No reason to worry about accidentally hitting the talk button I guess. Probably nothing happening unless you spam the frequency for weeks I'd guess.

Someone complained, they send someone to check and triangulate, verify that the operator doesn't have the license, then issue a warning or fine.

		I wonder how close they can triangulate? I'd guess they are SOL if I am in an apartment building with 200 other units.
