The forum registration is tied to your myGMRS account. So in order to create a forum account, you would have a full myGMRS account as well with access to the repeater listing information. We opened up guest access to allow new and prospective members to be able to ask questions and decide whether they wanted to participate in the community. Once they have a valid GMRS license they are free to sign up and have full forum access. To answer the poster's question about contacting a repeater owner, you may look up the repeater listing and click on the owner's username. That will bring up their profile with the mailing address attached to their GMRS license with the FCC. We don't expose their email address to non-members for obvious security reasons. In fact, the only reason we show the address is because it's public record with the FCC, so it's already available to the public.
