What do you mean by this? Did it not work at all? Did you try using UV-17Pro? As far as air band goes, it sounds like you may need to contact the seller if it doesn't work.

Same here.

And I thought it was just an old episode of the Andy Griffith show.

An unfortunate reality of life.

Petn is used to set off C4. The expansion rate and heat are very high but the volume produced is much lower than the C4.

Oh Lord! I almost fell out of my chair on that one.

I feel sorry for people like that. Can you imagine literally not having anything better to do?

@Lscott is a Kenwood man.

Ah, so THIS is what the CH. 15 bug was all about.

@SteveShannon sounds like you would be better off with the AnyTone AT 778 UV. Cost just a little more but it's a nice radio.

Who is this "Roger" character anyway?

Absolutely. And I agree, either the guy doesn't know what he is doing or he was being a jerk. Every time I have given a traffic report, if anyone was listening, they were grateful for the heads up.

Hacked by emojis.

@WRXP381 is right. I was just spewing out frequencies.

Channel No. Frequency Power (ERP in Watts) 1 462.5625 2 W 2 462.5875 2 W 3 462.6125 2 W 4 462.6375 2 W 5 462.6625 2 W 6 462.6875 2 W 7 462.7125 2 W 8 467.5625 0.5 W 9 467.5875 0.5 W 10 467.6125 0.5 W 11 467.6375 0.5 W 12 467.6625 0.5 W 13 467.6875 0.5 W 14 467.7125 0.5 W 15 462.5500 2 W 16 462.5750 2 W 17 462.6000 2 W 18 462.6250 2 W 19 462.6500 2 W 20 462.6750 2 W 21 462.7000 2 W 22 462.7250 2 W

My money is on number 3. I bet the RT22 has an RX tone set. Seems like we are seeing more and more of these FRS radios being shipped out with tones already set.

It could be that from the kitchen you are actually getting the signal through under the thick part of the trees. There was another guy here a few months ago that was dealing with that same issue.

The signal is line-of-sight and travels mostly horizontal. If there is a window in the attic you may have better luck putting the antenna there.

Do you have a layer of that foil barier in your roof?

Like @N6CST I have a Tundra and went straight to the battery. The grommets on each side of the truck have a nipple top and bottom. I used the bottom nipple on the driver's side. Top was already used. The install was very easy. Running the wire from the cab side made it easier to see where to fish the wires.

@LeeBo I've heard of people doing exactly that.

It's my understanding that you also get unlimited reactions which would be nice since I run out so quickly.

Hrm, a WTF beep. That would be nice. I hope my radio has that feature.

You could not have used a more appropriate emoji.

Yeah, what @Tip10 said. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves for picking on people with no arms.
