  1. The manufacturer of my vehicle provided extra lugs on both battery terminals specifically for connecting accessory loads.
  2. GMRS is not intended for traffic reports
  3. But it is more likely to apply more of its radiated power on receivable center frequency and less wasted on harmonics that no one hears. Your money is not wasted.
  4. This mule ain't even tired yet, but I believe the issue is resolved.
  5. I predict NOTHING will change regarding GMRS under Trump. He and his are only interested in the internet as related to FCC.
  6. Fixed Stations are legacy business data transmission. Stores relaying inventory info to warehouse/distribution.
  7. So much for the disclaimer on the equipment for not being sensitive to allowable RF
  8. Now you understand the difference between GMRS and CB
  9. May win a prize for your best post ever
  10. You should also be thinking they are holding their radio sideways instead of antenna straight up. Antenna polarization is a real thing. Not important standing right under the repeater, but it makes all the difference in the world out in the fringes
  11. I made a 12 mile simplex (radio to radio) contact yesterday. I could clearly recognize my friend's voice.
  12. In 1963 my father bought a CJ6A (same chassis as the M170) with a worn out motor and put a Buick V-6 in it. We used it for decades until it was totaled by an idiot driving on the wrong side of the road. No one was hurt other than the Jeep.
  13. So ... this depends on whether the radio has tone defeat and whether it has a meter. I still posit that this is above the average GMRS owner.
  14. I agree, you can't go wrong with a Mossberg. I have a 590 Now that we have derailed this thread, the question is whether to start a Radios/Jeeps/Guns thread or to continue to mutilate this one.
