That is indeed why many GMRS repeater owners setup to send the CW ID every 15 minutes. It's called "self-protection"...

So, I guess this is actually covered in Part 95... Seems like transmitting station ID is the only way to avoid being held as the individual license for all transmissions (presumably from public users, who aren't eligible as "family"), right? It's not required, but it would seem prudent for any repeater open to the public since ( c)(2) is dependent upon the public being licensed and follow the rules, yadda yadda.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to say, this site is proving to be a very reliable source for info as I was just granted my GMRS license. I hope to learn and take advantage of everything this site has to offer!

Linking is the least of this guys issues, he claims to be building a nationwide GMRS network and plans to charge users for access. He also claims to have 150 repeaters in his shop with tower space, internet and linking hardware ready to go. Best part, hes a new license holder, checking his FRN on FCC shows hes not involved in any other type of radio and hes plastering the main site with tons of future repeaters. This is all sham and the FCC is already aware of him and looking into it. If his pay for play network is real hes in big trouble....... Not sure how long Rich is going to let this guy fill his site with fake networks and repeaters. I found the website, poor grammar and the page looks to be made in MS word and Paint. http://www.usgmrsgroup.club/
