Assuming you’re loading FRS frequencies, why not just get FRS radios?. I assume when you programmed them, you set them to 1/2w? I went ahead and got my license for GMRS so that everyone in my group could have better comms without a HAM. I do like the simplicity, and have been contemplating a little UHF to pair with the next dual band I’m installing in my Jeep so I can use it as a repeater… I’d be interested to see how they last, construction, and battery life under use, and age…
Yes I went back in & set the power for all freqs to low
high is about 1.5w & low is about 500mw on my meter...
OH man you should have seen the grief I got on expo about these, not being type accepted etc, so I deleted the thread over there...I'm beginning to hate that place you cant discuss anything openly unless you bash each other & admin has to join in the games too
read the rules & proceed at your own risk if you purchase these
admin you can delete the thread if necessary I dont want anyone to do anything illegal
& for the 4th radio I now have it setup as my link radio for my allstar node#42282 which is also accessible via echolink #394708, I have the software to automatically forward the voip connections (echolink) there to allstar voip software, the audio on allstar with this cheap radio is fantastic
