hello all, this is my first post and need some help.
i wanted to get some radios to use for camping and outdoor activities and came across a great deal on a bunch of motorola ht1000 VHF 16 channel radios. i am new to the radio world and have no clue what procedures i need to go through to get the radios transmitting.
the seller said the radios needed to be programmed but i dont know how to do that. i have no problem paying for the licenses to transmit but not sure what frequencies and options i have for these radios and how to get the licenses. currently radios are in great shape with batteries but they just dont communicate with each other. and is this something that i can do myself or do i need to send them off to be programmed?
i have several gmrs radios already - can i program a couple of those channels onto the ht1000 so they will work together?
i also picked up a motorola rdv5100 vhf 10 channel radio. can i get this programmed to work with the ht1000 also?
sorry if these are stupid questions but i have been looking online for answers i understand and have not found anything helpful. so if someone could explain in laymen terms that would be great.
thanks for any answers. your help is appreciated.
