BK got a reaction from Logan5 in MURS pre programmed equipment July 11, 2013

I can vouch for the Baofeng UV5r model radios. I have three, up and running. Price has come down alot (<$45 + FS&H on amazon w/xtra battery, charger, and earpiece/mic) make these almost disposable!
Use CHIRP software...and Baofeng USB cable for PC, makes life infinitely easier. I programmed two radios last night in less than 5 mins.

BK reacted to Logan5 in First FRS area post July 10, 2013

we could discus how the FCC should have never allowed the bubble pak radio manufactures to include FRS freq's on GMRS radios to begin with. or vicea versa, FRS created the need for radio manufactures to included molded non removable antennas on their radios. I consider the non removable antenna part of FRS to be the most limiting factor, any radio that includes FRS frequency's can not have a removable antenna . FRS at a half of a watt into a "tuned gain" antenna would not be too bad.
