After reading about PMR446 our GMRS looks pretty good.
What's the difference? Other than one is used in the UK?

Move to another freq if you are on simplex.
I would like to change channel however all traffic I do is on the repeater side and when I try to explain to the simplex user to give me a few minutes to check in then I will leave you alone, but no you do have smart a***s think they own the channel and that's when I get mad.

The thing that I don't like about clubs is that they (Group Leader) make it a point to change things without notifying their members of procedural changes and when they try to log in to the page only to find out they have to request for membership all over again that's why membership in groups are dropping IMO.

It was on 725 but I see your point.

Hi
I have a different issue here. We have simplex station using GMRS22 and here the problem is that we have our CERT net every Tuesday night on 462.725 and during the net on several occasions I thought heard other signal comes in with the operator trying to check in. I found out later that the other signal is coming from a station on the simplex side of the channel, but if you have an emergency and keeps getting interfered with by the simplex station isn't that a violation? Just curious what you guys think and oh by the way the station in question is using illegal power cause when they key up they cover all the stations on the repeater side.

Ok
Here's my thought doesn't nodes connected to GMRS repeaters count as illegal operation also? They're connected to the GMRS network, but it's deemed legal to do so.

The web site now is hard to navigate or use unlike the old one that was easy .
As always there will be new features that someone will not know how to use at first but once you get used to it it will become easy.

Don't get me wrong,, i support free speech but I think these guys should apply some respect for other users..
I support the right to free speech too, but if they are going to use the radios, they should use them legally. Half of the time they don't even check the if the frequency is in use, they just key up like they own the frequency. There are times when I do hear these conversations on the input side of the repeaters too, and no call signs ever given when they start and finish.

Some of these guys are Landscapers and some other construction type workers and don't know that the hay there are doing with their radios.
And when you try to tell them that they're using their radios illegally they come back at you with a snark comments. I actually told them I'm going to report them to the FCC and after I said that i never heard them on the channel again. So they actually know what they're doing is illegal

I see. But if an owner of a repeater is sending out an ID on open simplex without PL mode....it's open game, right? He doesn't "own channel 20" just because he has the ability to send out an ID on that specific channel. Correct? Also if by chance the repeater does have an assigned RX/TX tone, why is the ID coming through a simplex channel?
on simplex you don't use any tones that's the reason why you pickup all traffic on that channel even you're on simplex.

This is highly unusual to get this on the west coast

Poorly maintained transmitters can transmit on secondary frequencies or spill over widely around their primary frequency.
Poor quality receivers can receive nearby frequencies.
Several UHF TV channels exist in the 470-490 MHz range. You may just be hearing one of them.I can understand if this happens once in a while, but it's happening everyday. The thing is that the signal will one day comes in strong and there's day it's weak. (But on 462MHz that's quite far to be receiving anything from 470-490 range)
