Hello everyone... need some help.
I'm with a military reenactment group and a couple of us are looking at getting some higher quality radios. Most people use your basic Midland, Moto, Cobra etc type of consumer 2 way running on GMRS/FRS. No one uses flat channels. Most people reenacting are using channels like: 21-31 or 15-17 etc.
I was told by a retailer that the F4021 UHF model would be compatible to the types of radios and that the channels could be changed in the field to match the channels that other Midland, Moto etc radios are using.
1. Is this accurate?
2. Do I need the computer programming software?
The retailer told me that they would activate the field programming option but would not program anything specific on their end. They are also sending a waiver stating that they are not programming anything and that they don't have tech support... meaning I am on my own.
I'd love some input and insight from some experts.
Thanks everyone.
