Just my two cents from the peanut gallery. Instead of dumping a lot of money into a crappy cheap radio. Just save a bit longer and buy a better radio, something commercial grade. Better radio over all. How are you going to power and AMP out and about? How much more distance are you actually going to gain. The lower channels were designed to be low power so if multiple people are on them, they are not creating interference. Think of a theme park.

I have not messed with that software yet, but when you do set up your personalities for the FRS channels, just double check the spacing on it. The CPS might automatically convert it to 12.5kHz for the channel spacing. Some of the Motorola CPS does it by default. I would love to pick up a portable radio in the future in that series so I can have and "all in one" radio, DMR, NXDN and P25.

If you have a yagi I believe you can hit it. I want to say I have heard someone check in from Flag before and they were using a yagi.

I meant a YouTube review. It would be hysterical!

I think you should do a review on it.

Some owners just want to keep track if who is using the repeater.

I have some from last year still pending.

Get a little portable set up adn go out and have fun. I find that there is just too much noise by my house for the HF.

20. Recently, several GMRS and FRS radios have been certified with an optional voice “scrambling” feature that purports to add a level of privacy to communications within a particular group of users.3 Well right here show they are not paying attention to their own rules. Wonder how many “several” really is?

I rarely hear Az station when doing POTA. I did twice, once at Table Mesa and the other operator was across the highway. The other time I was at the wildlife are off of the 85 in Buckeye and I heard some guys from Az talking. Not sure where they were at. Yesterday there was about 4 different people from Az talking and I could not hear any of them but the propagation was sending me to the North West and East. It varies all the time and through out the day.

I understand they are not violations. If I recall correctly he heard digital burst and stuff on this frequency. I was just pointing out that they are using it for a sounds like a trucking company. Maybe they have a data system transmitting on the frequency also and that is what he is hearing.

They were using DTMF tones I will gather as an ID for the radios. If they are running a little business on the channel maybe they are also using some other data on the channel also.

You were hearing stuff on this frequency originally, no? Maybe they have other forms of communication on it also?

I was at South Mountain today for a hike with some coworkers. I was picking up some company using GMRS-1 with DTFM tones being sent Pre and then calling out his number to dispatch.

No. It is past warranty. I had heard some were goos others not so much. I received a not so much one. I have it connected to a hot spot now so it helps a lot. I purchased it originally to listen to DMR a few years ago before I got my license. Did not know you needed a license to monitor. I just don’t care for the disconnect after use and programming it blows. Even with AT software, hell I think and APX is easier to do than that thing.
