    No, that's the Mesa Crest group.. They speak English..

    Exactly! Because this advice is WRONG!! To "get caught" someone must first be looking for you.. and for someone to go looking for you, they must first care... TL;dr: You can't get caught by the FCC because the FCC isn't looking for you because the FCC does not care. SOURCE: The record of enforcements over the last 15 years as reported in the FCC's public enforcement database

    The Crestline .575 repeater is the official "Radio TJ" non-english repeater in our area - it has a footprint roughly from north San Diego County east toward Landers and Joshua Tree Nation Park, well into Big Bear north east at least to Barstow, and northwest at least to Inyo County... and yah, there are some long-talkers on that repeater .. Look at the radios behind me in my videos.. They're all set to Ch 16 / .575.. in my newest video I dont think they turned off once.

    Calling them "enforcers" is a bit of a stretch, dont you think? I mean, considering that for these rules they do near zero enforcement...

    A den of thieves and liars with iniquity run amok..
  6. OffRoaderX
    I've been hearing that more and more.. Either they are not locking the new ones or they are "accidentally" shipping the non-U.S. models into the U.S.

    But only the FrankenRepeaters have the controller dangling from the side and have a Rasperry-Pi sticker on it.
  8. OffRoaderX
    Not necessarily.. But, usually. Generally speaking, on average, usually, statistically speaking, most of the time, a purpose-built repeater is going to perform better than a Frankenrepeater.
  9. OffRoaderX
    Only home-made/rinky-dink type repeaters come with those raspberry pi things.. It operates as the 'controller' between what is probably two radios scotch-taped together to control or coordinate the two radios and/or do things like Auto-ID. A REAL repeater, has no such rinky-dinkn'ess .

    "Making contacts" with anonymous men certainly counts as a personal activity... Very.. very personal..

    Always write to the lowest common denominator.

    Boaters may have, but I dont know nothin 'bout no boat radios.. But for us land-lubbers, there is no universal, agreed upon emergency use channel... SOME (very few) areas might have a GMRS channel assigned for emergency use, but it is limited to only that area. TL;dr: NO
  13. OffRoaderX
    Uh huh.. Then... Why do I hear FRS radios every time I'm on any of the GMRS repeater channels? and, why can I hear all of my locked/legal FRS radios on the GMRS repeater channels ? I am very confused.
  14. OffRoaderX
    Please explain this one to us...
  15. OffRoaderX
    Do not confuse me with "some people" who apparently only come here to try and make themselves feel better about spending way too much money on their toys by making fun of or demeaning other people's toys.
  16. OffRoaderX
    It's a UV-5RM, same as a AR-5RM, and any other radio that looks like it.. What specific "more info" are you looking for?
  17. OffRoaderX
    My suggestion is mounting it top/center of the roof.
  18. OffRoaderX
    There's your mistake, right there.
  19. OffRoaderX
    Thanks for confirming: Afraid to.. or incapable of, honestly answering a simple question..
  20. OffRoaderX
    You didnt answer the question. Why are you afraid to answer the question?
  21. OffRoaderX
    But what if said rules are unjust and amoral?
  22. OffRoaderX
    That TV does not sound like it's smart.
  23. OffRoaderX
    It's not permitted on GMRS but digital is in no way exclusive to H.A.M.. I do not have a H.A.M.s radios license but my FCC Business License (LMR) lets me transmit digital and encrypted.
  24. OffRoaderX
    No.
  25. OffRoaderX
    Overruled!
