Now that i know FRS can be used for business use how about power limits? Are they allowed wattage pass the 1/2 watt or still required to reduce power?

Don't forget to monitor some of atlanta's more active and entertaining ham repeaters. both uhf and vhf

You're officially a HAM, and allowed to transmit, when your callsign is assigned by the FCC and it appears on the ULS website.....
