Is this for Amateur? I thought there was only 8 GMRS RPT channels?

yall are too funny....lol

See, I told you would get a lot of assistance from the people on here!

Hi, Both choices are good ones, I would say the Kind of antenna is very important. Look up GMRS antennas on amazon, also look at YouTube for some tips as well. I sure some of the other Radio Experts (in my opinion, Great people by BTW) on here will give more feedback to this question, but I would say a repeater even if it's the portable one: Amazon.com: Retevis RT97S GMRS Repeater, RT97 Upgraded Version, Radio Repeater, Full Duplex Long Range, Compatible with Raspberry Pi, Portable, LCD Screen(1 Pack) : Electronics I understand you are budgeting things out. just put this on the list this can maybe be deployed in the event of a storm and then you can cover the 20-mile gap. I'm just thinking of Quick deployment scenarios. I'm also New to GMRS.

You are correct it is the two lined version.

lol... its ok, congrats to the winner.

@marcspaz How long did it take to tune it?

Wait what? you doing a giveaway... Cool!

@marcspaz Great Job! i know @LeoG will be excited!

I'm not going to try any unlocking I was just curious.

Mines says 5R-M8 GM-V02

Yes, I'm doing that as we speak, due to me going down south in a couple of weeks.

Great Information! I am currently studying for my license. Yes, I listen to the Nets Hear in CT and the reach is far. I know that the Bears Club repeater has a far reach up north and into Rhode Island at time. I can't wait to get my license!

Hello, Im following @OffRoaderX video guide on tone scanning. I'll keep you up on the progress if I can catch people talking on RPT2 or GMRS 16.

Maybe, but there are a few different ones to try.
