I'm glad that you are all talking about this very topic. I am new to GMRS, got licensed for the family a couple months ago and just last week got my Ham Technicians license. As the rest of the family is not yet on board with alternative communication medium, I plan on getting the Baofeng bf888s for them and just simply program it for them to contact me via a GMRS repeater in our area. As is mentioned above that these are FCC compliant, but not factory approved, I think that as they will be used in compliance with FCC usage rules. With that, what are options for GMRS that are repeater capable? Any recommendations that might be factory approved and compliant? Thanks so much.
