Seems like nobody you know keeps much of anything.. Based on your posts, everyone you know has also dumped their Midland radios and their Revevis radios.  Do you guys get together every month and build a big bonfire out of all the things you dump?

No.

But the question we're all really wanting answered is what the subject line "Mr" means.

No.

There's your problem, right there..

My guess is that you will be making a call to Baofeng support.. But maybe someone has a better idea.
PRO TIP: When setting a password..for anything.. write it down, or save it in your Password Manager.
 

That sounds serious! What happens if someone uses one of these amps on their GMRS radio??

Mine as well - i guess the real question is does the FCC regulate what the Fly-boys do?  No way that you, me, or any company could blast-through all GMRS channels like that without at least getting a mean letter.

Since it's been going on for several years, I doubt it.

Yes - been going on for several years.

This is a "question", not a regular forum-post.. Upvoted answers to the question rise to the top, stupid/downoted answers float to the bottom.  There is no 'switch' to change it.
EDIT: I stood corrected - there IS a switch!

The firmware updater runs only on Windows..  It *might* run via Parallels on your Mac.. But, it might not.. and I dont recall, but you may also be able to do it via the ODMaster app...
But... are you really sure you even need the firmware update? I usually avoid firmware updates unless it fixes something I actually care about.

The 22 FRS frequencies are exactly the same as the first 22 GMRS frequencies. There’s absolutely no difference in the frequencies but there are differences in the power limits. None of the 22 are reserved exclusively for FRS. 

Jeezus, Kripes.. SDRs are not allowed when off-roading..
It actually sounds like a digital (P25/DMR/NXDN) carrier, but with much more static mixed-in.

There is a switch.  Immediately below the original question, over on the right, is a pair of buttons. You can choose to sort by VOTES or by DATE.

My DB40-G did not come with a programming cable.  Has anyone purchased a DB40-G and if so did yours come with the cable?  And, what type of cable is it?

If your UV-82 is locked, which it sounds like it is, it will not transmit on GMRS frequencies (or any non-H.A.M. frequencies), and yes, it can still receive and listen to those frequenices.  If your UV-82 is not locked, then it will also transmit on GMRS and other non-H.A.M. frequencies.
The DB20G is a mobile GMRS radio so of the box it will transmit on all of the standard GMRS channels EXCEPT for channels 8-14, so because channel 7 is not between 8 and 14, it should also transmit on channel 7. If it does not, then you are either doing it wrong, you screwed up the programming, or its defective - and i doubt it is defective.

ANY hand-held GMRS radio will talk back and forth with FRS radios.  Any mobile GMRS radio will talk back and forth with FRS radios on channels 1-7 and channels 15-22 .

If the FCC doesn't even care (based on their contacts/enforcements), then why would I care?
