I will let @marcspazpost his results..
@WROZ250 I will concede that with my IP address IF someone successfully hacks into my ISP and IF my dynamic IP has not changed between the time the hack occurred and when someone is reviewing the info, then yes, it is possible to get someone's information.. The chances of that happening in reality for someone targeting you is slim, and there are much easier ways to get info on people.
Pretty sure I didnt use the word bullshit - i was just pointing out that the words you posted for us to all read, were incorrect, or at a minimum, way, oversimplified, as stated.

Try removing all tones from both radios, then try again and make sure you're at least 10 feet apart, and report back.

I dont usually like to post videos here, but I have been so inspired by several of the "experts" in this forum complaining that we should not be using radios made in China that I put together a list of all the American Made radios AND I vow to purchase each one of these American made radios and do a full review of them in the next 30 days..  Thank you to "some people" that opened my eyes about not purchasing radios that are not made in America.

Are you asking if two different people with their own licenses can talk to each other?

One of the members of our group recently was successful in having his city put up an open GMRS repeater intended primarily for emergency use, but also available the rest of the time.
He is now trying to expand to other local cities but is facing much resistance and typical bureaucracy and red-tape of getting the city government to approve everything.

Maybe if you tell us what kind of radio you have, and what exactly you mean by "work with", we can help..

Fricken Retevis and their narrowbandbullshite. 

Wider is better.. Unless you plan on using narrowband radios.

So, I had fun goofing around today... and the results are a fail (thankfully).  All the publicly available tool were a complete failure. This is a very good thing.
 
So, as @OffRoaderX mentioned, short of a hacker compromising the service provider (which is very, very difficult), today no one is grabbing your information from just your IP.
 
Thanks for the friendly challenge Randy!

Straight from the horses-ass...Erhh.. MOUTH..
#3 - The GMRS-9R (mine at least) does not come with a programming cable -So... problem solved!
#5 - The software for the GMRS-9R is in .RAR (not really a big deal).. I just use CHIRP - problem solved!
#6 - The # button only changes power level when in VFO mode.. You get the "screw-you" tone in channel mode
#8 - Fixed! Both the Abbree flexible antenna (with a huge base) and the Nagoya 771 fit
