  1. When was that from? Just checked mine now and it's not on it:
  2. By that logic, to someone who's a non English speaker using a GMRS radio, anyone speaking English is talking in code. I guess none of us get to use our radios now...
  3. Can you post a screen-grab of what channel 26 looks like either through the ODMaster app or Chirp, if you're using it? That'd be the simplest way to actually see what the radio is trying to do.
  4. BORTHER THANK FOR USING BIG LETRS SO THEY READ EASY. MY EYES AINT SO GOOD AND I CANT GET TO A EYE DOC SINCE BARB LEFT AND TOOK THE KEYS GOBBLESS
  5. Ok, now I'm confused as to what you're *actually* asking. First it sounded like you were looking for an antenna recommendation that could deal with moving around. Now it sounds like you HAVE an antenna and are looking for alternate mounting solutions? What's the problem you're actually trying to solve here?
  6. Ma'am, this is a Wendy's...
  7. It drives me bonkers that some radios are like this. Wouldn't shock me if this were one of them. Doesn't matter what's in 8-14, it won't transmit.
  8. That's because it's a mobile radio and can't transmit at a low enough power output to be legal on 8-14. That's pretty much standard on mobile GMRS radios.
  9. My cheap radios have like 50 menu options. You could say that about most of them.
  10. Yep, pretty much. Or if there's an environment with a lot of traffic and you may not notice you're stepping on someone who started transmitting just before you, I guess, but at that point, pick a different channel.
  11. Not usually, but I do when I'm in the race car and, even with molded earbuds, can't always hear whether or not my spotter's done transmitting. Other than that, no, no busy lock.
  12. Decided to sniff around once I was home. WSHI569's in Somersville, CT. 162.475 appears to be the closest one, and isn't reporting as degraded or as an outage. So the question is: can he receive it on another radio and this one's misconfigured / goofy?
  13. Try the other 6 NOAA frequencies? Without knowing where you are, we don't have any way to know what NOAA channel you SHOULD be hearing them on.
