I'm happy to see so many oppose the GMRS+ proposal. I have held an FCC license since 2005 but it only provided limited aerospace and marine capabilities. I only recently acquired a GMRS license and had been a long time FRS user. I don't mind the licensing fee, but I was surprised by the need to use callsigns at the end of a transmission or at 15 minute intervals. Most of the individuals in my area that cause trouble (if you can call it that) are using GMRS radios (or Ham radios) like they are an FRS walkie-talkie. They rarely use call signs so one could assume they are unlicensed. This means that to enforce the law you would have to locate them and file a complaint. I would argue that callsigns serve a nice function for identifying individuals in round table discussions but serve little utility in actually enforcing the law. Beyond this, I have been surprised at the lack of ability to use digital technology like FHSS or other types of encoding on GMRS. The need to use plain language without attempts to deceive is also puzzling. Meanwhile I can happily use my fleet of DTR radios with nearly 100% privacy. Seems like many of these GMRS laws are a solution looking for a problem. The QA manager in me will of course follow the laws, no matter how ridiculous and unconstitutional they may seem. It's just that it would be nice to have a little more freedom and privacy without having to go to a corporate license or use DLR/DTR 900 MHz radios. I do think that GMRS could very well (and probably should) end up as a license by rule service like FRS, MURS, 900 ISM, etc, though I know the consensus on here oppose this.
