I'm in the process of installing a new GMRS repeater. I'm using a Motorola GR 1225 repeater rated at 45 Watts Maximum output to the Duplexer.
I have checked FCC Part 95 and I'm confused whether GMRS is Wideband or Narrowband and section 95.135 (Maximum Authorized Transmitting Power) states that no station may transmit with more than 50 Watts output, but subsection D states that a Fixed Station must not transmit with no more than 15 Watts output power. I called the FCC and they couldn't answer my questions about the output power and whether it should be narrow banded.
Can anyone give me some clarification?
