I have just gotten off the phone with Marvin's Building Material and Home Builders about their use of GMRS.I was at one of their stores yesterday and listened to the employees use 462.675 for ordering lunch and general business activities.I notified corporate a few minutes ago and as luck had it reached the IT dept. The gentleman I spoke with was unaware that they were operating illegally.I politely explain to him the rules regarding GMRS use and in turn he provided me with his email address where I sent him a copy of the FCC rules and also links from the FCC website of the latest fines issued to businesses that were caught using GMRS. The IT representative in turned thanked me for the information and will be correcting the situation and I will notify every one as soon as I am updated on the situation....William

Thanks, William... Tactfulness and polite communications with the unknowing public goes much farther than yelling. Good job... !!

Now your talking., Way to go William. I got a new BC125at scanner a few days ago and began monitoring the rest of our GMRS channels, not a single call sign announced since I got it. Ignorance is BLISS till they get caught.
