The Great Unofficial Radioreference FRS/GMRS/MURS All-Inclusive Fact Sheet Hoookay. For what it's worth, here is a (rather messy) compilation of some of the most frequently-requested information on these boards regarding operation of the part-95 family/general mobile/multi use radio services...

I've been working on programming the UV5R to be legal GMRS ready for Canada. It needs to be 2 W radiated power. I have a CHIRP image here Index of /radio features: weather channel in RX mode Emergency use of Marine CH16 (do not misuse this channel) scanning of MURS (not yet legal in Canada...

Me and my buddy use radios to communicate frequently, but our houses are just barely out of range of each other (we just get a little static). I am a technichly inclined do-it-yourselfer, and i'm thinking about running a wire up a tall tree in my yard, and wrapping the other end around the...

Hey guys, i recently got my gmrs licenese so i could use my bubblepack moto's, and i was wondering if anyone knows of any open gmrs repeaters that work in sd county. The radios that i got were about a hundred bucks, so they included a feature that offsets channels 15-22 for repeater use. I...

I'm new here and new to two-way radios (except for my law enforcement career). I was wanting to set up a mobile two way to function on FRS and GMRS to use with other riders in our group using FRS and possibly GMRS. I would like more than the 2 or 5 watt that most handhelds use and an external...

Wanted to see if anyone could or knew someone that could build a small all in one GMRS repeater. I want repeater,duplexer, power supply, tone board all in one small unit. Just plug it in attach antenna and go. I'm not one to build things myself nor do I want to spend 500 on ebay. Thanks!

Ok, so I had mentioned this in another forum, but didnt seem to get any response about it....so, I'l make my own post here for this... I love being and amateur radio op and I'm proud to be a licensed ham and have my callsign. I also love that we can now have a "badge icon" on our profiles to...

Ok, I now know that the narrowband requirement does NOT apply to GMRS,...BUT, what I'm asking here is: Q: Is the use of narrowband ALLOWED in the GMRS service, or is ONLY wide-band allowed for use in GMRS? (ie, can I use a radio that is on a GMRS frequency and set for narrowband TX/RX on that...

I am aware of the FCC mandate for narrowbanding of the VHF & UHF public safety/service bands, but will the mandate also apply to require narrowbanding of the GMRS or is GMRS exempt from the narrowbanding requirement?

This is my first post and I am totally new to all of this and I have this question. I'm involved in emergency management in a town that is approx. 1 sq mile. We had a situation where we lost all contact with the stakeholders of the town except for the police/ems/emergency management...

I live in Sierra Vista (about 12 miles from the Mexican border). I purchased a HomePatrol about a year ago but only used it for road trips. Monitoring the Monument Fire kindled (pun intended) my interest in scanning. I just added unlicensed bands (CB, FRS, etc.) to thanks to another post on...

Just wondering if there are any open GMRS repeaters still operating in the Detroit area. I have researched this question several times and have come up with conflicting info.

I would like to purchase a 5-10watt GMRS repeater. I have seen several repeaters that people have built out of mobile or handheld radios but I am not a master with electronics. I would need a plug and repeater type. As in receiver, transmitter, duplexer, controler, and power supply all in one...

MOD...I hope this is the right place to post, please move if not. I am setting up a GMRS repeater 462/467 UHF (incase someone does not know the freqs.) and Im trying to choose an antenna. My station is going to be located at my buisness, which is a 50' by 100' steel building aprox 20' hi, I...

Just wondering from you old timers if this site is up to date with its information on repeaters. can anyone advise me? Amateur and GMRS radio repeaters in New-York

I was looking at a list of VACS in the n2nov site and have notice that some use GMRS frequencies. unknown if its simplex or repeater operation. But isn't this not allowed on GMRS? http://www.n2nov.net/nycvolamb.html

Is it common for really old cordless phones to leak onto frequencies in the 440mhz band? This came over my radio today and I thought it was very strange. "07" is the FRS channel 7. YouTube - Cordless phone leaks conversation over 440 mhz GMRS frequency. Anybody else pick up things like this...

They operate on 462.600 will a output PL of 151.4. At the begining of every hour, the station automated voice gives a time check. I also heard an automated voice say New york, New jersey, Connecticut. I dont know if this is a grandfather business, but its barely skimming me in Northern Brooklyn.

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone in the Los Angeles area could program some HT 600s for a friend of mine. The channels would mostly be amateur repeaters and GMRS repeaters. He has both licenses. He would be willing to pay a small fee for the programming services. Thanks

He plays music for hours both hiphop & rock. He flat out start cursing telling people to get of his channel. I heard him around 11:00 pm. After arguing with some one he identify himself as "31 flavors" from the Bronx. He must be using a mobile since i hear him clear from brooklyn. Anybody heard...
